Yitz Gale added the comment: I was actually bitten badly by this issue with StringIO. I added fileinput only as an afterthought.
In an xml.sax app, I needed seek() support for a codec-wrapped file handle, so I over-wrapped it with StringIO. The result was that I had to refactor code all over the place to handle StringIO as a special case. What a mess! Why is this getting over-excited? It's a very lightweight change. You can't beat the cost/benefit ratio. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1286> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
