New submission from Martin Panter: This is a followup to Issue 24230, which added support for bytes filenames to “tempfile” module. Currently I think the documentation is misleading, for example it suggests the default values are prefix="tmp" and suffix="", when they are actually None to avoid forcing a text filename. I suggest this patch to fix the problem.
The patch also merges the paragraphs that describe “suffix” and “prefix”, and points out that mktemp() does not support these changes. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: tempfile-sig.patch keywords: patch messages: 250440 nosy: docs@python, gregory.p.smith, martin.panter priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Adjust tempfile documentation for bytes filename support versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file40431/tempfile-sig.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25064> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
