I am not sure if simply ignoring the non-valid character is the best way to go. Feels like silencing errors. b64decode does accept the 'validate' flag - defaulted to False - that will halt the execution and throw an error. What might be a good idea is to implement an 'errors' argument that accepts 'ignore' as a value, like we do for bytes.decode (https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes.decode) ---------- nosy: +fbidu _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34832> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
