Bill Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Just to reply to Antoine's comments on my patch:
- it would be nice to have more unit tests, especially for the various bytes/unicode possibilities, and perhaps also roundtripping (Matt's patch has a lot of tests) Yes, I completely agree. - quote_as_bytes() should return a bytes object, not a bytearray Good point. - using the "%02X" format looks clearer to me than going through the _hextable lookup table... Really? I see it the other way. - when the argument is of the wrong type, quote_as_bytes() should raise a TypeError rather than a ValueError Good point. - why is quote_as_string() hardwired to utf8 while unquote_as_string() provides a charset parameter? wouldn't it be better for them to be consistent with each other? To encourage the use of UTF-8. The caller can alway explicitly encode to some other character set, then pass in the bytes that result from that encoding. Remember that the RFC for percent-encoding really takes bytes in, and produces bytes out. The string-in and string-out versions are to support naive programming (what a nice way of putting it!). _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3300> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
