[New-bugs-announce] [issue22215] "embedded NUL character" exceptions

[Serhiy Storchaka]

New submission from Serhiy Storchaka:

Currently most functions which accepts string only without embedded NUL character, raise TypeError. Proposed patch change exception type to more consistent ValueError. It also unifies error messages.

I have opened a discussion on Python-Dev.
