STINNER Victor <[email protected]> added the comment: We may also accept TextIOWrapper (eg. sys.stdin) *and* BufferedReader/FileIO (eg. sys.stdin.buffer). It is possible to test the type of the stream. With a TextIOWrapper, the raw buffer can be read using stream.buffer.
But for StringIO/BytesIO: only BytesIO should be accepted. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <[email protected]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4953> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
