R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:
In this case the docs are correct and the code has a bug. The intent was that if the message passed in to BytesGenerator has a policy, that policy should be followed. If it is not being followed, that's a bug in BytesGenerator. The tricky part of course is backward compatibility. Is there code out there depending on this bug? Anyone want to hazard a guess? Are there things other than mangle_from_ that are being ignored? If we decide it is too risky to fix in BytesGenerator (or maybe only to fix it in a feature release), then I'd pass the whole policy in the else clause, with a comment about what bug it is working around. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45299> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
