Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Just prepend the empty bytestring if you want to make sure the result is a bytes object:
>>> b'' + memoryview(b'foo') + b'bar' b'foobar' I think the following limitation may be more annoying, though: >>> b''.join([memoryview(b'foo'), b'bar']) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: sequence item 0: expected bytes, memoryview found ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15945> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
