> [python] Non-string message property keys not handled correctly
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: PROTON-2237
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PROTON-2237
> Project: Qpid Proton
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: python-binding
> Reporter: Kim van der Riet
> Assignee: Kim van der Riet
> Priority: Major
>
> The AMQP 1.0 spec allows only string keys for message properties.
> Proton's Python binding has a method (_message.py:91 _check_property_keys())
> for checking message property keys, but it does not handle all cases
> correctly:
> # Proton types Symbol and Char are derived from string, and are allowed in
> the test. This results in an illegal encoding.
> # Because in Python 2, many coders carelessly use string literals without
> the required u'' prefix (and thus results in a bytes type), bytes types are
> converted to unicode string types. However, the encode() function is being
> used, which simply returns a binary type in Python 2 and raises an error in
> Python 3. This should probably be the decode() method, which returns a string
> and works for both Python 2 and 3.
