New submission from Tomas Grahn:
When csv.DictWriter.writerow is fed a dict with extra fieldnames (and
extrasaction='raise') and any of those extra fieldnames aren't strings, a
TypeError-exception is thrown. To fix the issue; in csv.py, edit the line:
raise ValueError("dict contains fields not in fieldnames: " + ",
".join(wrong_fields))
to:
raise ValueError("dict contains fields not in fieldnames: " + ",
".join(repr(wrong_field) for wrong_field in wrong_fields))
Attached is a patch that fixes the problem (works in both 2.6 and 2.7, I
haven't tried anything else).
Here is a simple test to demonstrate the problem:
import cStringIO, csv
sio=cStringIO.StringIO()
writer=csv.DictWriter(sio, ["foo", "bar"])
writer.writerow({1:"hello", 2:"world"})
