New submission from Walter Dörwald <wal...@livinglogic.de>: PEP 293 states the following:
""" For stream readers/writers the errors attribute must be changeable to be able to switch between different error handling methods during the lifetime of the stream reader/writer. This is currently the case for codecs.StreamReader and codecs.StreamWriter and all their subclasses. All core codecs and probably most of the third party codecs (e.g. JapaneseCodecs) derive their stream readers/writers from these classes so this already works, but the attribute errors should be documented as a requirement. """ However for io.TextIOWrapper, the errors attribute can not be changed: Python 3.8.5 (default, Jul 21 2020, 10:48:26) [Clang 11.0.3 (clang-1103.0.32.62)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import io >>> s = io.TextIOWrapper(io.BytesIO()) >>> s.errors = 'replace' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: attribute 'errors' of '_io.TextIOWrapper' objects is not writable So the errors attribute of io.TextIOWrapper should be made writable. ---------- components: IO messages: 374751 nosy: doerwalter priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: io.TextIOWrapper.errors not writable type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41465> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
