I still don't have this working. I've been specifying encodings without
success.
The StringIO example usage in the Python 3.0 documentation here:
http://docs.python.org/3.0/library/io.html#io.StringIO
gives me the same error on 2.6:
#! /usr/bin/env python
from __future__ import print_function
import io
output = io.StringIO()
output.write('First line.\n')
print('Second line.', file=output)
# Retrieve file contents -- this will be
# 'First line.\nSecond line.\n'
contents = output.getvalue()
# Close object and discard memory buffer --
# .getvalue() will now raise an exception.
output.close()
./stringio30.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./stringio30.py", line 7, in <module>
output.write('First line.\n')
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.6/io.py", line 1487, in write
s.__class__.__name__)
TypeError: can't write str to text stream
