Martin Panter added the comment: A couple of specific problems have been raised by Terry here. Checking each against the current Python 3 status, some have already been fixed:
* The codecs.open() signature has been fixed in Issue 19548. * The StreamReader.readline(size=...) parameter documentation has been fixed to match the docstring in Issue 18336. So that leaves these three problems, as I see it: 1. The notice about opening in binary mode still needs fixing for encoding=None. 2. The buffering parameter is applied to the underlying builtins.open() call, so should be clarified in the documentation. 3. codecs.open(filename, encoding=...) will by default call builtins.open(filename, "rb", buffering=1), which makes no sense according the the documentation. ---------- nosy: +vadmium stage: -> needs patch title: codecs.StreamReader.readline doc needs fix -> codecs.open() buffering doc needs fix _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10344> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
