How do I override file.write() under Python 3?
- by Sorin Sbarnea
Below works on Python 2.6 but on Python 3.x it doesn't:
old_file_write = file.write
class file():
def write(self, d):
if isinstance(d, types.bytes):
self.buffer.write(d)
else:
old_file_write(d)
# ... do something like f = open("x") f.write("...")
The problems is that with Python 3.x the first like will generate an error:
NameError: name 'file' is not defined
How can I make this work on Python 3.x?
PS. In fact I'm looking for a solution that will work on both versions.
