Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: I don't like PR 1385. abs_pos is a private attribute used only in _io._Buffered.seek() for readable streams when whence is SEEK_SET or SEEK_CUR. There is no guarantee that it contains relevant value for non-readable stream.
You could call buffer.seek(0, SEEK_CUR) rather than buffer.tell() for avoiding a system call for readable stream. But this looks as a shamanism too. Or provide a function similar to the RAW_TELL macro but just checking if the current position is 0. If define it in bufferedio.c near _buffered_raw_tell() it is more chance that it is consistent with abs_pos and future changes don't break it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30228> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
