Ethan Furman added the comment: Here's the patch -- the code for % and %= is in place for bytes and bytearray; I still need to get the doc patch done. I'll commit Wednesday-ish barring problems.
Big question ============ Background ---------- There is a Python C ABI function called PyBytes_FromFormat which is used to create bytes objects using the %-interpolation format (it takes a c string and none-or-many c args). Actual Question --------------- Should PyBytes_FromFormat also support the new codes of %a and %b ? My Thoughts ----------- Writing things down is good! %a and %b are both for Python level arguments, not C-level arguments, so %a and %b would make no sense. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file37766/issue20284.stoneleaf.04.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
