Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Given that the changed behavior is documented and pretty obviously intentional, it is not a bug. The proposal would have to be that we 'enhance' 3.4 *or later* by reverting back to the 2.x -- and possibly break 3.0 to 3.3 code. We are not going to do that without extremely good reason.
For a nameless file, using the integer fd as a 'name' seems more truthful than '<fdopen>'. I believe the latter can be a actual filename on *nix. On Windows, while Explorer rejects it, there may be ways to bypass the check. The integer fd is also more useful than None and 'isintance(x.name, int)' is as easy to check as 'x.name is None'. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy status: open -> closed type: behavior -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17895> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
