Martin Panter added the comment: Here is a patch for the higher-level LZMAFile implementation to use Nikolaus’s “max_length” parameter. It depends on Nikolaus’s patch also being applied.
I split out a _RawReader class that does the actual decompress() calls, and then wrapped that in a BufferedReader. This avoids needing any special code to implement buffering, readline(), etc. The only significant changes in the API that I can see are: * LZMAFile now inherits the useless specification of BufferedReader.peek(), losing the guarantee of returning at least a single byte. I questioned the BufferedReader specification at <https://bugs.python.org/issue5811#msg233750>. * read() now accepts size=None, because BufferedReader does. I had to change a test case for this. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file37658/LZMAFile.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15955> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
