Alexandre Vassalotti <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I think that check in write_bytes() is a guard to avoid resize_buffer() from truncating the string stored in the buffer. However, I am not sure if it is still necessary.
I don't know why help() doesn't work on BytesIO instances. But, the problem doesn't seems to be in my code, since `help(sys.stdin)` doesn't work either. Finally regarding test_StringIO, see msg59460. Anyway, test_StringIO is superseded by test_memoryio included my patch and should be removed from the stdlib. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1751> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
