Neil Schemenauer <nas-pyt...@arctrix.com> added the comment:
Attached is a rough patch that tries to fix this problem. I changed the behavior in that unicode char 0x2028 is no longer treated as a line separator. It would be trival to change the regex to support that too, if we want to preserve backwards compatibility. Personally, I think readlines() on a codecs reader should do that same line splitting as an 'io' file. If we want to use the patch, the following must yet be done: write tests that check the splitting on FS, RS, and GS characters. Write a news entry. I didn't do any profiling to see what the performance effect of my change is so that should be checked too. ---------- Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file47851/codecs_splitlines.txt _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue18291> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
