Hello. Will this be fixed? It's really annoying that you cannot pass valid unicode filename to compile(). I'm using a workaround: I just pass "<placeholder>" and then “update” the resulting code object recursively to set the correct co_filename. Afterwards the code object can be executed and produces correct tracebacks. (I'm using Windows.) Fixing this will probably fix also http://bugs.python.org/issue17588 . It doesn't bother just me. See e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8798591/unicodeencodeerror-when-using-the-compile-function . Thank you. Drekin
