I don't know if it fixes the issue, but it introduces a regression. r85442 reverts it. --- Revert r85435 (and r85440): decode command line arguments from utf-8 Python exits with a fatal error if the command line contains an undecodable argument. PyUnicode_FromString() fails at the first undecodable byte because it calls the error handler, but error handlers are not ready before Python initialization. --- The problem is to get a function to decode a bytes string from utf-8 in main() (before Python initialization). Possibilities: - Use PyUnicode_DecodeUTF8Stateful() and tell it to not call the error handler but exit immediatly (return NULL). Eg. check a flag (function argument or global variable?) to check if we should call the error handler or not - Use _Py_char2wchar() and set temporary the locale to an utf-8 locale. The problem is to get an utf-8 locale. Is there an utf-8 locale which is always available? - Another solution? I prefer the _Py_char2wchar() solution because I'm sure that it works before Python initialization. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4388> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
