If Python 2 code is not unicode-friendly (it almost never is) it should use StringIO.StringIO, for example 'six' defines six.StringIO: This is an fake file object for textual data. It’s an alias for StringIO.StringIO in Python 2 and io.StringIO in Python 3. six.BytesIO: This is a fake file object for binary data. In Python 2, it’s an alias for StringIO.StringIO, but in Python 3, it’s an alias for io.BytesIO. So the solution seems to be a try/except (and then, better move the "from X import StringIO" to the top of the file then, rather than keeping it in def main).

Did we decide until when we want to support Python-2-only hosts in QEMU? I think I would be okay with just getting rid of Python 2 support and always using Python 3 instead of trying to write code that works with both. Python 3 was installed for me, but the scripts didn't use it. Kevin ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Python 3 was installed for me, but the scripts didn't use it. I'd like to drop Python 2 support on QEMU 3.1. -- Eduardo ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread
