zachrahan <zpin...@gmail.com> added the comment: Well, "wontfix" would be appropriate in the context of deprecating the sort_keys option (over the course of however many releases) and documenting that the new procedure for getting JSON output in a specific order is to ensure that the input dict was created in that order.
Certainly for regression testing, sort_keys is no longer needed, but that's not the only reason people are using that option. (It's certainly not why I use the option -- my use stems from sort_keys improving human readability of the JSON.) But outside of deprecating sort_keys wholesale, it is still a bug that sort_keys=True can cause an error on input that would otherwise be valid for json.dump[s]. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25457> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
