James G. sack (jim) added the comment: Here's more:
>>> unicode(object) u"<type 'object'>" There seems to be an call to repr() somewhere in the process. This seems, at least to me, to violate the principle of least surprise, and I'm thinking that unicode(x) ought to return UnicodeDecodeError if x is not a string. Maybe this is argueable. If so, I'd like to be educated. :-) Regards, ..jim __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1308> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
