It's worth noting that this warning is dependent on hash() producing the same values for 'equivalent' bytes and str instances. This seems a bit fragile, and is something that could potentially change in the future---with bytes and str comparing unequal, there's no reason for the hashes to correspond. (It might even make sense to deliberately change the hash for either bytes or str so that it doesn't match the other, just to expose any bugs that rely on the hashes being identical.) ---------- nosy: +mark.dickinson _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
