New submission from gdata gmail: The documenatation for urllib.parse (https://docs.python.org/3.0/library/urllib.parse.html) states several times:
"This may result in a slightly different, but equivalent URL, if the URL that was parsed originally had unnecessary delimiters (for example, a ? with an empty query; the RFC states that these are equivalent)." This is false -- RFC 3986 explicitly states that ? with an empty query is _not_ equivalent to a URL without it. For example, the following two URL's should be considered different: http://example.com/? http://example.com/ https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-6.2.3 ---------- messages: 244477 nosy: gdata gmail priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: urllib.parse should not discard delimiters when associated component is empty _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24332> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
