Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: In Python 2 and earlier in Python 3 there were no restrictions that arguments for format units "s", "y", "u", "z" and "Z" (matching Argument Clinic converters with length=False) shouldn't contain NUL. And this was considered as a bug.
As for NUL, ask Victor. It argued for naming it "null character/byte" and it was consistently changed almost everywhere (left some documentation, but this will be fixed soon). larry.one.more.clinic.format.unit.map.cleanup.5.txt looks almost good to me, but I hesitate about the zeroes parameter. str_converter has the zeroes parameter, but the length attribute. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24000> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
