New submission from Mark Hammond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: It appears r66103 introduced a regression - file objects are treated as having an encoding, so non-ascii data fails. It was further complicated by the fact that file objects in 2.6 have an 'encoding' attribute, but by default it is None - so a 'hasattr' check for encoding doesn't work the same.
The fix is quite trivial and I also added a new test to demonstrate the error - but for the impatient, you can reproduce it via: import logging log = logging.getLogger("test") log.addHandler(logging.FileHandler("log.out")) log.warning("foo\x80") In all earlier versions of Python, the bytes as specified are written. 2.6 complains that 'None' is not a valid encoding and fails to write the record. ---------- assignee: vsajip components: Library (Lib) keywords: patch messages: 72478 nosy: mhammond, vsajip priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: logging module fails with non-ascii data type: behavior versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3772> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
