New submission from Julian Berman: The base64 module documentation claims that decode methods raise exceptions for non-base64 input, but they do not.
There was a patch for Py3 done in issue1466065, but the documentation was not updated for Py2. I have not read that ticket carefully enough to be able to tell what the expected resolution was for Py2 (fixing the bug or just updating the docs). ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 224089 nosy: Julian, docs@python, r.david.murray priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: base64 module still ignores non-alphabet characters type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22088> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
