Working in an internationalization proposal <http://python.org.ar/pyar/TracebackInternationalizationProposal> (issue #16344) I've stopped at this problem (#9769) where multi byte encodings (like utf-8) is not supported by PyUnicode_FromFormatV() Beside my proposal, I think utf-8 should be supported for consistency with the other unicode functions, like PyUnicode_FromString() or even unicode_fromformat_arg() Attached is a patch that: - enhanced the iterator to detect multibyte sequences, with sanity checks about start & continuation bytes - replaced unicode_write_cstr with PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful - tests Hope it helps, this is my first patch for cpython and my C skills are a bit rusty, so excuse me if there is any newbie glitch ---------- nosy: +reingart Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27771/pyunicode_fromformat_utf8.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9769> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
