Alexandre Vassalotti <alexan...@peadrop.com> added the comment: If I understood correctly, #3675 is about making pickle data generated by Python 3 readable by Python 2. However, this issue is about compatibility in the other direction—i.e., making Python 2 pickles readable by Python 3, which is easier.
I have a patch that make Unpickler translates the old names to the new ones at runtime. The only thing missing in the patch is the unit tests since I am not sure this should be tested. I am thinking using the approach Collin Winter used for his compatibility tests in #5665. However, his approach requires bidirectional pickle compatibility between Python 2 and 3, which we don't have. ---------- keywords: +patch stage: -> patch review Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14124/compat_pickle.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6137> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
