[issue3428] httplib.HTTPMessage undocumented

2010-06-28 Thread ThomasH
ThomasH added the comment: > Actually urllib.urlopen.info method return a mimetools.Message instance But the urllib.rst documentation is still flawed: "The :meth:`info` method returns an instance of the class :class:`httplib.HTTPMessage`" (http://svn.python.org/view/python/trun

2010-06-28 Thread ThomasH
ThomasH added the comment: Still applies. Neither the 2.7 documentation has changed (judging from the current online dev docs), nor the implementation (judging from current svn). So my first two lists are still valid. I cannot comment on the third, as I don't have a 2.7 installation at

[issue6395] Infinite Recursion during Unpickling a codecs Object

2009-07-08 Thread ThomasH
ThomasH added the comment: Sounds good to me. The main intention of this bug is not to make codecs objects pickleable by all means (I don't know if this would be sensible and/or possible), but at least to have them degrade gracefully during pickling, particularly without infinite recu

2009-07-01 Thread ThomasH
New submission from ThomasH : I recently ran into an infinite recursion trying to unpickle a codecs.StreamWriter object (I presume the issue would be the same for a StreamReader). Here is the end of the stack trace:   File "/sw/lib/python2.5/codecs.py", line 330, in __getattr__

ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Georg, you seem like a dedicated person. I'm sure you guys have thought about documenting return types of methods and functions in a standardized way, documenting classes so that you could fade in and out inherited features, and such. W

2008-07-22 Thread ThomasH
New submission from ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The library reference documentation of httplib.HTTPResponse does not match up with the online help documentation, or with the dir() information of a particular instance. E.g. the list of public features in the library reference

[issue3429] urllib.urlopen() return type

2008-07-22 Thread ThomasH
New submission from ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The file-like object returned by urllib.urlopen() should be documented like a proper class. The textual description under the urlopen() method is less approachable and breaks the usual format of a class documentation. Maybe the return type

2008-07-22 Thread ThomasH
New submission from ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The httplib.HTTPMessage class needs documentation; it is missing from the package documentation entirely. Instances of this class are e.g. returned by the urllib.urlopen().info() method. -- assignee: georg.brandl components: Documen

2008-07-22 Thread ThomasH
New submission from ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: http://docs.python.org/lib/module-urllib.html The page says that the return type of urlopen().info() is a mimetools.Message object, which is not quite true; it is a httplib.HTTPMessage object, which is a class derived from mimetools.Messag

ThomasH <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Thank you for both of your feedback. I was sure that there is a release and deployment process in place for the docs. But if the process doesn't allow links to be fixed on a web page, there is probably something wrong with it. It's
