Oh, I see XMLGenerator completely outdated. It even has not been ported to
Python 3. See function _write:
def _write(self, text):
if isinstance(text, str):
self._out.write(text)
else:
self._out.write(text.encode(self._encoding, _error_handling))
In Python 2 there was a choice between bytes and unicode strings. But in Python
3 encoding never happens.
XMLGenerator does not distinguish between binary and text streams.
Here is a patch that fixes the work of XMLGenerator in Python 3. Unfortunately,
it is impossible to avoid the loss of backward compatibility. I tried to keep
the code to work for the most common cases, but some code which "worked" before
may break (including I had to correct some tests).
