New submission from Dominique Parolin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Python Versions tested: Windows 2.5.2 (r252:60911) Debian Linux Python 2.4.4
Example: >>> import struct >>> struct.pack('HL', 1, 1) results in '\x01\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00' although '\x01\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00' was expected. if concatenated or done separately >>> struct.pack('H', 1) + struct.pack('L', 1) result is as expected '\x01\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00' or '\x01\x00' and '\x01\x00\x00\x00' respectively Error: Length is 8 where it should be 6 This is as well true for "hl", "hL" and "Hl". Free description: I could not find another error regarding that, nor any information using popular search. Further no explanation found why that might be valid behaviour.
