Brett Cannon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: So the use of pickle is not fair as that doesn't round-trip if you simply write out a file because py3k pickle doesn't like classic classes and the new-style classes want copy_reg which is not in existence in py3k since it was renamed. See pickle2write.py and pickle3read.py (which are version-agnostic; just following Skip's naming) for the pickle failing.
Now if you skip that one use-case in the example of pickling a user-defined class then everything works out. I have attached a hacked-up version of Skip's scripts that take Unicode strings, encode them in Latin-1 and UTF-8, and then decode them on the other side in Py3K, all without issue. In other words I think my solution works and pickle is the trouble-maker in all of this. ---------- stage: commit review -> needs patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file12097/pickle2write.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3799> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
