[issue11396] add format handler to bytes object
New submission from nestor nestornis...@gmail.com:
Many programs written for Python 2.x use simple string interpolation to create
byte strings with specific layout, this is gone in 3.x. Is it possible to
support the format method but maybe only supporting field names like '{}'
'{1}{2}' '{name}' and not conversion and formatting for the bytes type?
Examples:

and the get_current_url function at this post:

Eric Smith e...@trueblade.com added the comment: There have been a number of discussions about this, but no concrete proposal. The last one I recall was to add a __bformat__ method, but I couldn't find the email trail just now. See also issue 3982. -- nosy: +eric.smith ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue11396 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
