The problem is that ctypes c_char (and c_char_p) creates unicode string
instead of byte string. I attached a proposition (patch) to change this
behaviour (use bytes for c_char).
So in next example, it will display 'bytes' and not 'str':
from ctypes import c_buffer, c_char
buf = c_buffer("abcdef")
print (type(buf[0]))
Other behaviour changes:
- repr(c_char) adds a "b"
eg. repr(c_char('x')) is "c_char(b'x')" instead of "c_char('x')"
- bytes is mutable whereas str is not:
this may break some modules based on ctypes
The HTTPResponse object is being passed to BufferedReader, but it
wasn't designed to be used that way. These changes extend the hacks
that have already been made in urllib2 to get the tests to pass.
The hacks need to be removed and proper support for use with the io
library. That's a project for another day.
All code in the stdlib should be ASCII only, unless (a) it's test
input for testing the *parsing* of unicode, or (b) it's an author's
name in a comment.
We just need to force the encoding when no encoding is passed to toxml()
or toprettyxml(), rather than relying on the default encoding (which is
unreliable).
All tests pass, but maybe some tests have become unnecessary now.
Removed PaxUnicodeTest, added MiscTest.
TarFile.extractfile() returns a binary file object which can be used
with a TextIOWrapper for text I/O.

Moved all of the capture_server socket setup code into the try block
so that the event gets set if a failure occurs during server setup

assignment before proceeding. The test data in DispatcherWithSendTests
is also sent in multiple send() calls instead of one to make sure this

Use READONLY consistently instead of RO
........
The HTTP class is a backwards compatibility layer for the Python 1.5
API. (The only remaining use in the std library is xmlrpclib.)
The current change makes urllib issue HTTP/1.0 requests with
HTTPConnection, because is accesses HTTPResponse.fp directly instead
of using the read() method. Using fp directly interacts poorly with
persistent connections. There are probably better solutions than the
current one, but this is a start.
Add code to test_roundtrip() that figures out the encoding
from the first two lines of the file.
(We need to refactor this again to make it available to
all places that need this, e.g. linecache.py.)
In particular, watch out for comparing b"" to "". They're not equal,
but you can start at the code asking whether buf == "" for a long time
before realizing that it will never be True.
I'm not sure why I thought it should originally, but it introduces an
__del__() method on the response which cause the close() to be called
too soon using the HTTP compat class.
Also, remove some stale comments. The HTTPResponse calls makefile()
immediately, so there is no risk of it closing the socket.
If a makefile()-generated object is open and its parent socket is
closed, the parent socket should remain open until the child is
closed, too. The code to support this is moderately complex and
requires one extra slots in the socket object.
This change fixes httplib so that several urllib2net test cases pass
again.
Add SocketCloser class to socket.py, which encapsulates the
refcounting logic for sockets after makefile() has been called.
Move SocketIO class from io module to socket module. It's only use is
to implement the raw I/O methods on top of a socket to support
makefile().
Add unittests to test_socket to cover various patterns of close and
makefile.
error callback changes the bytes object in the exception the decoder might
use memory that's no longer in use. Change unicode_decode_call_errorhandler()
so that it fetches the adresses of the bytes array (start and end) from the
exception object and passes them back to the caller.
