Is it an error by Django?

[utpalbr...@gmail.com]

The below code looks wierd.

   def __init__(self, content=b'', *args, **kwargs):
        super(HttpResponse, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)
        # Content is a bytestring. See the `content` property methods.
        self.content = content
The wierd part is  /// content=b''///

[Lachlan Musicman]

I'd imagine that's the new Python3 system. content is a bytestring, not unicode?

Cheers

Yeah, if you look in the docs here
https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html#string-and-bytes-literals

"Bytes literals are always prefixed with 'b' or 'B'; they produce an instance of the bytes type instead of the str type. They may only contain ASCII characters; bytes with a numeric value of 128 or greater must be expressed with escapes."

and the bytes link shows

https://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes.html#bytes

Well Lachlan Thank you very much.....

I have a doubt....

As per your given link i guess it should be like ////    content=' b '    ////

[Andréas Kühne]

Hi,

No, the correct format is  //// content=b'' //// otherwise you would just be default content to a string that equals "b". It says that there is no encoding on the string afterwards and it is a byte string. It works the same way Python 2 used to do with unicode strings, in that case it was //// content=u'' ////

Regards,

Andréas
