New submission from Serhiy Storchaka: path_converter in Modules/posixmodule.c sequentially tries to convert an argument to str, bytes, and int. If previous conversion is failed, it clears the error and tries with type. This can hide some errors (such as MemoryError) and even cause using unexpected conversion.
Proposed patch cleans up path_converter. In addition it avoids copying the content of instances of string subclass. ---------- assignee: serhiy.storchaka components: Extension Modules files: path_converter_cleanup.patch keywords: patch messages: 262657 nosy: larry, serhiy.storchaka priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Clean up path_converter in posixmodule.c type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file42327/path_converter_cleanup.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26671> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
