STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: The problem is the cast char => Py_UNICODE in formatchar() function. char may be unsigned, but most of the time it's signed. signed => unsigned cast extend the sign. Example: (unsigned short)(signed char)0x80 gives 0xFF80.
Attached patch fixes the issue and includes an unit test. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +haypo Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15768/unicode_formatchar.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7649> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
