Currently -W command line options and PYTHONWARNINGS environmental variable non-intuitively override settings specified by -b / -bb command line options.
$ python3.4 -c 'print("" == b"")' False $ python3.4 -b -c 'print("" == b"")' -c:1: BytesWarning: Comparison between bytes and string False $ python3.4 -bb -c 'print("" == b"")' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> BytesWarning: Comparison between bytes and string $ python3.4 -We -b -c 'print("" == b"")' Traceback (most recent call last): File "<string>", line 1, in <module> BytesWarning: Comparison between bytes and string $ python3.4 -Wd -bb -c 'print("" == b"")' -c:1: BytesWarning: Comparison between bytes and string False $ python3.4 -Wi -b -c 'print("" == b"")' False $ python3.4 -Wi -bb -c 'print("" == b"")' False $I suggest to increase priority of -b / -bb command line options.
The attached patch should be applied after patch from issue bpo-20355.
(Test suite of Python triggers some BytesWarnings, so firstly they will have to be fixed.)
Arfrever commentedon Jan 23, 2014
By the way, Tools/scripts/run_tests.py (used by 'test' target in Makefile) passes '-W default -bb', which currently fails work as intended (i.e. treating BytesWarnings as errors).
serhiy-storchaka commentedon Feb 24, 2014
Final patch should remove a workaround in Tools/scripts/run_tests.py.
pitrou commentedon Apr 28, 2014
The patch is a bit problematic, because Py_BytesWarningFlag may also be set by e.g. an application embedding Python, but then Python's main.c won't be executed.
ncoghlan commentedon Dec 7, 2017
The approach I've taken in my PR is similar to the one that Arfrever proposed (albeit different in the details due to other changes in the startup code since that patch was written).
For the embedding case, I've simply noted in the What's New section of the porting guide that embedding applications need to configure a
error::BytesWarningfilter explicitly if they want to treat BytesWarning as errors (in addition to setting the flag to request that the warnings be emitted in the first place).vstinner commentedon Dec 12, 2017

Ok, I merged Nick's PR: -b and -bb options now have the highest priority. I close the issue.
