STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org> added the comment:
sys.getlocaleencoding() versus locale.getencoding(). For me, the Python locale module should use the C API to access the Unix locales like LC_CTYPE, nl_langinfo(CODESET), etc. The sys module are more for things specific to Python, like sys.getfilesystemencoding(). Since sys.getlocaleencoding() would be a fixed value for the whole process life time, I agree that the sys module is a better place. I can write a PR adding sys.getlocaleencoding() if we agree on the API. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue47000> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
