[New-bugs-announce] [issue32723] codecs.open

[Xiang Zhang]

New submission from Xiang Zhang <angwerzx at 126.com>:

>>> import codecs
>>> f = codecs.open('/tmp/a', 'w', errors='replace')
>>> f.errors
'strict'

Passing errors to codecs.open without encoding doesn't work. Can't get this from doc and I don't think it should silently ignore the passing argument.
