The problem is in Modules/_io/stringio.c, in stringio_write. The error message still uses the py3k wording where 'string' means unicode string. The error should say "unicode argument expected, got 'str'". There might be similar mistakes around. |

The error is slightly different with _pyio:
>>> import _pyio as io; fake = io.StringIO(); fake.write('boo')
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "./py2trunk/Lib/_pyio.py", line 1559, in write
s.__class__.__name__)
TypeError: can't write str to text stream
Is it better?

I think the first one is better because it says what it got and what it expects (even if now it's using the wrong word). |
