New submission from Martin Panter: In the Generator.flatten() (Lib/email/generator.py), the code sets, among others, the instance attributes _EMPTY (correct spelling) and _encoded_EMTPY (misspelling). Further down in that class, _encoded_EMPTY (correct spelling) is set as a class attribute, and this correctly-spelt version appears to be used in the _handle_message_delivery_status() method. The BytesGenerator class inherits Generator and overrides the correctly-spelt _encoded_EMPTY class attribute.
It seems that both _EMPTY and the misspelt _encoded_EMTPY instance attributes are not used. Perhaps they should be removed. Or perhaps they are not doing the job they were intended for and there is a real bug. ---------- components: email messages: 271424 nosy: barry, martin.panter, r.david.murray priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Generator._encoded_EMTPY misspelling in email package versions: Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27630> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
