New submission from Ryan Kelly <r...@rfk.id.au>: Both file.truncate() and StringIO.truncate() accept an optional "size" parameter to truncate the file to a specific size. SpooledTemporaryFile should accept a similar parameter and pass it on.
The only tricky part is that truncate can potentially increase the size of a file, so it needs to check the max size and rollover if appropriate. Patch is against py3k branch; should work on trunk modulo the use of b"xxx" in the tests. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: spooledtemporaryfile_truncate.patch keywords: patch messages: 117436 nosy: rfk priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: SpooledTemporayFile.truncate should take size parameter type: behavior Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19027/spooledtemporaryfile_truncate.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9957> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
