New submission from Sebastian Kreft: Although it is already explained that the default mode of the opened tempfiles is 'w+b' a warning/notice section should be included to make it clearer.
I think this is important as the default for the open function is to return strings and not bytes. I just had to debug an error with traceback, as traceback.print_exc expects a file capable of handling unicode. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 219585 nosy: Sebastian.Kreft.Deezer, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add a warning section exaplaining that tempfiles are opened in binary mode versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21637> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
