Martin Panter added the comment: In theory, TextIOWrapper could rewrite the last bit of the file (or the whole file) to have the requested number of characters. But I wonder if it is worth it; maybe deprecation is better. Do you have a use case for any of these bugs, or are you just playing around to see what the methods do?
In Issue 12922, seek() and tell() were (re-)defined for TextIOBase, but the situation with truncate() was apparently not considered. Perhaps the write()–read() bug is related to Issue 12215. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26158> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
