New submission from Shane G <pac...@gmail.com>:
plistlib in Python 3.7.3 (and earlier) does not autodetect plist data as XML if it contains whitespace before the "<?xml" tag. Apple tools (and code) however, do. Suggestion: lstrip() the header bytes before comparison Source Link: https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.7/Lib/plistlib.py#L493 ---------- messages: 346089 nosy: shaneg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: plistlib doesn't skip whitespace in XML format detection type: behavior versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37344> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
