MySQL Connector/Python

Wrong dbapi for Binary in python3

Bug #732134 reported by Martin Drejer on 2011-03-09

This bug affects 3 people

Just downloaded the file http://launchpad.net/myconnpy/0.3/0.3.2/+download/mysql-connector-python-0.3.2-devel.tar.gz. In this file theres both a python2 and a python3 lib (MUCH APPRECIATED). However the dbapi file in the python3 folder declares the Binary type as:
Binary = str
In python 3 this should be:
Binary = binary

This avoids the code from wrapping binary data in b'data' when inserted into data.

The path to the file in the archive is:
mysql-connector-python-0.3.2-devel/python3/mysql/connector/dbapi.py line 58

Oops. Typo...

The line for python3 should of course be:

Binary = bytes

Indeed, that should be 'bytes' for Python 3.1. Thanks for reporting this!
