Neil Schemenauer added the comment: Uploading new patch with the following changes:
- Allow length 1 bytes object as argument to %c. - Make %r an alias for %a. I will upload a draft PEP (proposed as a replacement for 461). Victor, thanks for the review. My reply is: - regarding duplicated code: almost all of the code I added came directly from Python 2.7. If it can but shared with unicode object, great. However, note that the Python 2.7 code is well tested and well optimized. - regarding the introduction of __ascii__, see my draft PEP. PEP 461 cannot be implemented, adding __bytes__ to number objects breaks backwards compatibility. - regarding the change to _datetime, I don't mind if it gets discarded but I think its useful behavior. Mostly I made it as a proof-of-concept. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33506/bytes_mod_v3.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20284> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
