Aaron Gallagher <habna...@gmail.com> added the comment: Okay, here's a new version for the py3k trunk. I'm assuming that this is not going to make it into 2.x at all, because of the API changes. This patch only touches the python version of the code and adds a unit test for testing whether pickle works with arbitrary nesting depth in test.pickletest. The test is disabled for the C pickle tests currently, since it causes python to run out of stack space and crash.
So, does _pickle.Pickler's API need to be changed as well? Right now, pickle._Pickler.dump expects save (and save expects the other save_* methods) to either return None or an iterable, where the iterable yields either None or further iterables. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to make _pickle.Pickler.dump work the same way, but since C doesn't have generators, I don't know how exactly the API would translate. ---------- versions: +Python 3.1 -Python 2.6, Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file13654/pickle3.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3119> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
