Marc-Andre Lemburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Before CodecInfo tuple subclasses were introduced, the lookup() function used to return a tuple: (encoder, decoder, stream_reader, stream_writer)
See http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0100/ These were normally addressed by position rather than name and still are in most cases. I'm not sure whether the choice of attribute names on CodecInfo was done on purpose or a simple oversight. Walter added them... I've added him on CC. They do match the names of the methods on codecs, so perhaps we should just change everything to read encode/decode instead of encoder/decoder ?! ---------- nosy: +doerwalter, lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4178> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
