Steve Dower added the comment: All registry values are blobs and it's up to the caller to decide how to read it - the "types" are hints and are not binding.
I don't mind the default behavior being to trim at the first null, but it is a lossy operation on our side and so we really ought to provide an easy way to get the true value back. Otherwise, we couldn't easily write scripts in Python to detect registry values with embedded nulls :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25778> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
