Recently I switched from Python 3.8.3 to Python 3.11.4. A strange problem appeared which was not there before: I am using the win32clipboard backage (part of pywin32), and when I use SetClipboardData() to write text which consists ENTIRELY OF DIGITS to the clipboard, I either get an error (not always the same error message) or a program crash. The problem does not appear if I use SetClipboardText() instead. Sample program:from win32clipboard import * OpenClipboard() SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "A") SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "A0") SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "0A") SetClipboardText("0", CF_UNICODETEXT) print("OK so far") SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "0") CloseClipboard() Sample output: OK so far Traceback (most recent call last): File "R:\W.PY", line 8, in <module> SetClipboardData(CF_UNICODETEXT, "0") pywintypes.error: (0, 'SetClipboardData', 'No error message is available') I can get round the problem by using SetClipboardText(). But can anyone shed light on this?
It also happens in Python 3.10, but not Python 3.9. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
