Marc-Andre Lemburg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: This is due to the function downcasting the wchar_t values to Py_UNICODE, which is a 2-byte value if you build Python as UCS2 version on Unix.
Most Unixes ship with UCS4 builds, so you don't see the problem there. Mac OS X ships with a UCS2 build, which is why you run into the problem on that platform. UCS2 builds are also the default build on Unix, so if you compile Python yourself, it will result in a UCS2 build, unless you explicitly specify the UCS4 build configure option or configure happens to find a Tcl/Tk version installed that uses UCS4 internally. ---------- nosy: +lemburg _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4474> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
