I'd rather keep encoding incrementally, and reduce the length of each attempt until the last UTF-8 character does not have its top bit set (i.e. is the final character in a multi-byte sequence). Otherwise the people who like to print >2GB worth of data to the console will complain about the memory error :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37871> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
