Pretty simple seeming question, but can't find answer via google or docs...
I am using urllib2 as follows:
handle = urlopen(req, postdata) # and URL to return a handle on ... print handle.info()
the print statement prints out the headers:
Content-Type: text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Length: 2845 Date: Tue, 01 Feb 2005 12:40:28 GMT Server: Apache Coyote/1.0 Connection: close
which is the string I want to use. However, if I write a function call using this:
log(handle.info())
I get this:
TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'instance' objects
(The log function expects a string)
What is the magic incantation to get the string I want so I can pass it to my function?
I've tried repr() but that isn't it (I suspected it wouldn't be).
I suppose I'm looking for the equivelant of Java's toString() method...
thanks! alex
use:
log(str(handle.info()))
str creates a string object from a supplied object with a __str__ method. I think print calls str on what it is going to print
