[XML-SIG] [Bug #126275] pyexpat.c doesn't match docs or SAX parser

[noreply@sourceforge.net]

Bug #126275, was updated on 2000-Dec-18 20:06
Here is a current snapshot of the bug.

Project: Python/XML
Category: expat
Status: Open
Resolution: None
Bug Group: None
Priority: 5

Summary: pyexpat.c doesn't match docs or SAX parser

Details: _xmlplus/sax/expatreader.py, line 81

self._parser.Parse(data, isFinal)

And the Python 2.0 docs say this is right.

But 'ave a butcher's at PyXML-0.6.1/extensions/pyexpat.c line 379 and following, particularly the PyArg_ParseTuple

static PyObject *
xmlparse_Parse(xmlparseobject *self, PyObject *args)
{
    char *s;
    int slen;
    int isFinal = 0;
    int rv;

    if (!PyArg_ParseTuple(args, "s#|i:Parse", &s, &slen, &isFinal))
        return NULL;

Uh oh.  Surely enough:

>>> doc = r.fromString(s)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/Ft/Lib/ReaderBase.py", line 49, in fromString
    rt = self.fromStream(stream, ownerDoc)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/_xmlplus/dom/ext/reader/Sax2.py", line 267, in fromStream
    self.parser.parse(stream)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/_xmlplus/sax/expatreader.py", line 42, in parse
    xmlreader.IncrementalParser.parse(self, source)            
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/_xmlplus/sax/xmlreader.py", line 120, in parse
    self.feed(buffer)
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.0/site-packages/_xmlplus/sax/expatreader.py", line 81, in feed
    self._parser.Parse(data, isFinal)
TypeError: not enough arguments; expected 4, got 2

Hmm.  So what's right?  The C code or the SAX driver and docs?

Note: Python 2.0's pyexpat.c is the same way as PyXML's
