New submission from Ray.Allen <[email protected]>:
According to PEP 383, the new "surrogateescape" error handler of codecs should
begin to appear since Python3.1, but in the trunk I found some code have
already used it:
Modules/_io/fileio.c:
static int
fileio_init(PyObject *oself, PyObject *args, PyObject *kwds){
...
stringobj = PyUnicode_AsEncodedString(
u, Py_FileSystemDefaultEncoding, "surrogateescape");
...
Obviously, the "surrogateescape" error handler not exists.
Some test code:
===========================
import io
file_name = u'\udc80.txt'
f = io.FileIO(file_name)
===========================
When run this piece of code on a machine whose file system default encoding is
gb2312, will raise an exception:
LookupError: unknown error handler name 'surrogateescape'
I don't know weather this is a bug?
Thanks.
