New submission from Jon Foster <jon.fos...@cabot.co.uk>: The documentation for the C API function PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16() does not match the code.
If *byteorder is 1 or -1, the documentation says that the function looks for a BOM. It doesn't. This patch updates the documentation to match the code. (Also, I just realised that the docs for PyUnicode_DecodeUTF32() have the exact same bug. That is NOT fixed by this patch). This patch also clarifies the PyUnicode_EncodeUTF16() docs. ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation files: unicodedocs.patch keywords: patch messages: 92764 nosy: JonFoster, georg.brandl severity: normal status: open title: [PATCH] PyUnicode_DecodeUTF16 docs wrong (byteorder param) type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file14910/unicodedocs.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6930> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
