Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: For now the error message virtually always contains the name (unless the length of its UTF-8 representation > INT_MAX). With unicode_name_maxlen.patch it doesn't contains the name of length few hundreds or tens characters.
Proposed patch makes the error message always contain the name, but truncated to NAME_MAXLEN bytes. >>> name = ''.join(map(chr, range(0x2c80, 0x2ce4))) >>> unicodedata.lookup(name) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> KeyError: "undefined character name 'ⲀⲁⲂⲃⲄⲅⲆⲇⲈⲉⲊⲋⲌⲍⲎⲏⲐⲑⲒⲓⲔⲕⲖⲗⲘⲙⲚⲛⲜⲝⲞⲟⲠⲡⲢⲣⲤⲥⲦⲧⲨⲩⲪⲫⲬⲭⲮⲯⲰⲱⲲⲳⲴⲵⲶⲷⲸⲹⲺⲻⲼⲽⲾⲿⳀⳁⳂⳃⳄⳅⳆⳇⳈⳉⳊⳋⳌⳍⳎⳏⳐⳑⳒⳓⳔ�...'" ---------- components: +Extension Modules versions: +Python 3.6 -Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file41365/unicode_name_maxlen_trunc.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23997> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
