My problem is that some functions will use mbcs in strict mode (functions using PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault): raise UnicodeEncodeError, and other will use mbcs in replace mode (functions using Windows functions in ANSI mode): raise IOError (or other error depending on the function). It's inconsistent. We should try to keep the same behaviour for all functions. Examples of functions using (indirectly) PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault to encode unicode filenames: bz2.BZ2File() and _ssl.SSLContext.load_cert_chain(). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9820> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
