points out there are really two types of continued headers defined in this RFC (i.e. "encoded" parameters with the form "name*0*=" and unencoded parameters with the form "name*0="), but we were were handling them both the same way and that isn't correct. This patch should be much more RFC compliant in that only encoded params are %-decoded and the charset/language information is only extract if there are any encoded params in the segments. If there are no encoded params then the RFC says that there will be no charset/language parts. Note however that this will change the return value for Message.get_param() in some cases. For example, whereas before if you had all unencoded param continuations you would have still gotten a 3-tuple back from this method (with charset and language == None), you will now get just a string. I don't believe this is a backward incompatible change though because the documentation for this method already indicates that either return value is possible and that you must do an isinstance(val, tuple) check to discriminate between the two. (Yeah that API kind of sucks but we can't change /that/ without breaking code.) Test cases, some documentation updates, and a NEWS item accompany this patch. |
