Category: None Group: Python 2.4 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Out of Date Priority: 5 Submitted By: Michael Kerrin (mkerrin) Assigned to: Raymond Hettinger (rhettinger) Summary: Inconsistency between StringIO and cStringIO Initial Comment: The readline method for StringIO defalt argument for the size arguement is None while for all other file-like objects it is -1. So if we pass in -1 to the StringIO readline method, all lines are returned, again inconsistent with the other file-like objects, and if we pass in None to any other file-like object we get a TypeError, int required. The attached python script is a very simple example of what I mean. Note that this is causing me a lot of grief in trying to get tests to pass for a simple fix to an open source project. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2006-03-18 08:24 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Closing then. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kent Hsu (cphsu) Date: 2006-03-06 05:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1468643 Sorry, it seems the bug has been fixed in 2.4. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>> import cStringIO as c >>> sio = c.StringIO() >>> sio.write("aaaaa") >>> sio.truncate(0) >>> print sio.getvalue() >>> sio.write("bbbbb") >>> print sio.getvalue() aaaaabbbbb which I get in StringIO module is "bbbbb". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Kent Hsu (cphsu) Date: 2006-03-06 05:04 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1468643 BTW, another inconsistency between StringIO and cStringIO :-) >>> import cStringIO as c >>> sio = c.StringIO() >>> sio.write("aaaaa") >>> sio.truncate(0) >>> print sio.getvalue() >>> sio.write("bbbbb") >>> print sio.getvalue() aaaaabbbbb which I get in StringIO module is "bbbbb". ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1416477&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
