With respect to my earlier suggestion that buffer protocol should have priority over __index__, note that the documentation implies the same order: >>> help(bytes) class bytes(object) | bytes(iterable_of_ints) -> bytes | bytes(string, encoding[, errors]) -> bytes | bytes(bytes_or_buffer) -> immutable copy of bytes_or_buffer | bytes(int) -> bytes object of size given by the parameter initialized with null bytes | bytes() -> empty bytes object | | Construct an immutable array of bytes from: | - an iterable yielding integers in range(256) | - a text string encoded using the specified encoding | - any object implementing the buffer API. | - an integer .. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29159> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
