STINNER Victor added the comment: If I understood correctly, the patch fix the ASCII encoder to handle correctly error handlers which return non-ASCII text replacement strings. Right?
I am not aware of such error handler, so I guess that it's a more a theorical fix? I really hate the code (in each encoder) which handles non-ASCII replacement strings. The code in the charmap encoder is just a mess: it uses a reentrant call to the encoder... I never understood this crazy behaviour. I guess that nobody relies on the behaviour. I hesitate to simply raise an error instead of using different rules depending on the code. Ah yes, by the way, each codec behaves differently on non-ASCII replacement strings... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28774> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
