hello, working on Pylint, we have a lot of voluntary corrupted files to test Pylint behavior; for instance $ cat /home/emile/var/pylint/test/input/func_unknown_encoding.py # -*- coding: IBO-8859-1 -*- """ check correct unknown encoding declaration """
__revision__ = 'éééé' and we try to find that module : find_module('func_unknown_encoding', None). But python3 raises SyntaxError in that case ; it didn't raise SyntaxError on python2 nor does so on our func_nonascii_noencoding and func_wrong_encoding modules (with obvious names) Python 3.2a2 (r32a2:84522, Sep 14 2010, 15:22:36) [GCC 4.3.4] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from imp import find_module >>> find_module('func_unknown_encoding', None) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> SyntaxError: encoding problem: with BOM >>> find_module('func_wrong_encoding', None) (<_io.TextIOWrapper name=5 encoding='utf-8'>, 'func_wrong_encoding.py', ('.py', 'U', 1)) >>> find_module('func_nonascii_noencoding', None) (<_io.TextIOWrapper name=6 encoding='utf-8'>, 'func_nonascii_noencoding.py', ('.py', 'U', 1)) So what is the reason of this selective behavior? Furthermore, there is BOM in our func_unknown_encoding.py module. -- Emile Anclin <emile.anc...@logilab.fr> http://www.logilab.fr/ http://www.logilab.org/ Informatique scientifique & et gestion de connaissances _______________________________________________ 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
