Create a function like linecache.getencoding() seems to be overkill. I created issue #10335 to add a function tokenize.open_python(): open a Python script in read mode without opening the file twice and get the encoding with detect_encoding(). This issue is more generic than trying to optimize the trace module. > 2. This will not work for source code not stored in a file, but provided by > a __loader__.get_source() method. However it looks like trace will not > work at all in this case, so fixing that is a separate issue. For this case, I think that we can add a try/except IOError with a fallback to encoding = 'utf-8'. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10329> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
