(At least as of a few days ago) In Python 3 there is; strings are unicode. A PyUnicodeObject object has two encodings that you can grab from a pointer (which means they have to be there; you don't have time to generate them like you would with a function pointer). One of these (str) is the "internal encoding" which is chosen at compile time, and the other (defenc) is now hard-coded to UTF-8. Hashing is also based on the UTF-8 bytestring. -jJ _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
