With this patch, the winreg module is now completely unicode: it only uses Windows wide-char API functions, and all strings (keys, subkeys, values) are passed untranslated. str8 is banned, and byte objects are only allowed for raw binary data. Note: It seems a good approach to use the wide-char Windows API whenever possible. They fit very well with PyUnicode strings, and simplify the code... |

While I agree with the principle (use wide APIs where possible), I'd like to point out that they don't work on Windows 95 (at least some don't; if you link with MSLU, you get some more to work); that was the major reason not to use them in the past. This is no issue for Python 3000, of course, since Windows 1995 is not supported anymore. |
