Alexandre Vassalotti <alexan...@peadrop.com> added the comment: This is not a typo. cStringIO.StringIO is a factory function that returns either a cStringO object (for writing) or cStringI (for reading). If this behavior causes a problem to you, then consider using StringIO.StringIO.
Alternatively, you could upgrade to Python 2.7 or 3.0 and use io.StringIO() which doesn't have this limitation. ---------- nosy: +alexandre.vassalotti resolution: -> wont fix _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5345> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
