New submission from Andrew R. <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I am confused by the socket docs for Python 3000. It says to pass a string through socket.send or socket.sendall, however, it does not seem to account for the ASCII to Unicode transition. Trying to send an ordinary Python 3k string through socket.send fails with a TypeError stating that the first arg must be bytes or buffers but not a str.
Besides the misdocumented sockets, I would think it would be easier to translate a Unicode string to ASCII, however, I fear this might violate the "Explicit is better than implicit" rule and RFC tables. ---------- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documentation messages: 71105 nosy: georg.brandl, st33med severity: normal status: open title: Socket Python 3k Documentation failure OR Unicode string is not supported with socket.send type: behavior versions: Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3550> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
