I am facing an error on Unicode decoding of path if it contain a folder/file name starting with character 'u' .
Here is what I did in IDLE 1. >>> fp = "C:\\ab\\anil" 2. >>> unicode(fp, "unicode_escape") 3. u'C:\x07b\x07nil' 4. >>> fp = "C:\\ab\\unil" 5. >>> unicode(fp, "unicode_escape") 6. 7. Traceback (most recent call last): 8. File "<pyshell#41>", line 1, in <module> 9. unicode(fp, "unicode_escape") 10. UnicodeDecodeError: 'unicodeescape' codec can't decode bytes in position 5-9: end of string in escape sequence 11. >>> Not sure whether I am doing something wrong or this is as designed behavior . any help appreciated Rgds, aberry -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/UnicodeDecodeError%3A-problem-when-path-contain-folder-start-with-character-%27u-tp24146775p24146775.html Sent from the Python - python-list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
