Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Integer overflow errors were fixed in 4 error handlers: surrogatepass, backslashreplace, namereplace, and xmlcharrefreplace. Is is hard to write general robust tests. In worst cases they requires more than sys.maxsize or even sys.maxsize*2 memory and for sure fail with MemoryError. It is possible to write a test for xmlcharrefreplace, but it will not robust, after changes of implementation details it could raise MemoryError instead of OverflowError after consuming all address space.
So I suggest close this issue without tests. Such tests are useless. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file37285/codecs_error_handlers_overflow_tests.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22518> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
