Martin v. Löwis <mar...@v.loewis.de> added the comment: We should really start maintaining a specification of the pickle format(s). Pickle is designed to be independent of the Python version, although protocol extensions may be added over time. In such a specification, it would say that the format of the L code is "ascii decimal digits, followed by L".
The patches look fine to me, please apply. A further change might be that on pickling a long in text mode, the I code could be used if the value is in range(-2**31,2**31). However, this is independent of the issue at hand. ---------- assignee: -> marketdickinson nosy: +loewis resolution: -> accepted _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4842> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
