Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: The patch produces a failure in test_getargs2, but that test is wrong and should be fixed:
====================================================================== ERROR: test_w_star (test.test_getargs2.Bytes_TestCase) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/antoine/py3k/__svn__/Lib/test/test_getargs2.py", line 385, in test_w_star self.assertEqual(getargs_w_star(memoryview(b'memoryview')), b'[emoryvie]') TypeError: must be read-write buffer, not memoryview I'm surprised no other test failures arise. I did add that line (which I commented with "XXX for whatever reason...") for a reason, but I don't remember which one. It seemed necessary at the time, I'm glad it isn't anymore. So, about the patch itself: you should simply use assertRaises. There's no reason for readinto() not to fail with a TypeError (silent failure is wrong). Thank you. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10451> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
