Mark Grandi added the comment: I was just thinking that if os.stat fails, then you try getting the size by just calling len() on it, as stuff like io.BytesIO and io.StringIO will respond to that.
But if we are not changing the behavior of the API, at the very least there needs to be documentation changes / an example of adding a file that does not have a file descriptor. I can do that if needed. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22208> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
