New submission from Dino Viehland <di...@microsoft.com>: Currently the json module is using the sre_* modules to construct it's regular expressions instead of just using the re module directly.
Because of this it's taking a dependency on what would appear to be CPython specific implementation details (sre_* appear to be undocumented) and a deprecated module. The end result is that json decoding doesn't work on IronPython and may not work on other Python implementations. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 94010 nosy: DinoV severity: normal status: open title: json uses sre_* modules which may not work on alternate implemenations type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7130> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
