In import.c starting around line 1210 (I removed a bunch of code that doesn't matter for the problem):
if (PyUnicode_Check(v)) { copy = PyUnicode_Encode(PyUnicode_AS_UNICODE(v), PyUnicode_GET_SIZE(v), Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, NULL); v = copy; } len = PyString_GET_SIZE(v); if (len + 2 + namelen + MAXSUFFIXSIZE >= buflen) { Py_XDECREF(copy); continue; /* Too long */ } strcpy(buf, PyString_AS_STRING(v)); *** So if v is originally unicode, then copy is unicode from the second line, right? Then we assign v to copy, so v is still unicode. Then later on we do PyString_GET_SIZE and PyString_AS_STRING. That doesn't work, does it? What am I missing? n _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
