Right but what about the ability to enable warning on stringification without enabling the warning on comparison? There are packages / situations where comparing strings and bytes makes a lot of sense (e.g. use string and byte versions of data as keys in the same dict), but I think stringifying bytes rarely if ever does. > Explicitly repr-ing a bytes instance does not produce a warning, and never > produced, so I don't understand what do you mean. Well that's absolutely ideal as I did not check if it did, just wanted to be clear that I wasn't looking for a warning in that case. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43526> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
