New submission from Daniel Hillier <daniel.hill...@gmail.com>:
In the zipfile module, masking of bit flags is done against hex numbers eg. if flags & 0x800... To increase readability I suggest we replace these with global variables named for the purpose of the flag. From the example above: if flags & 0x800 becomes: if flags & _MASK_UTF_FILENAME ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 393622 nosy: dhillier, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: zipfile: Add descriptive global variables for general purpose bit flags versions: Python 3.10, Python 3.11 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44129> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
