It seems the documentation is not enough accurate. "Unlike the StringIO module, this module is not able to accept Unicode strings that cannot be encoded as plain ASCII strings." I understand that u'foo' can be encoded as plan ASCII, however it does not behave correctly with cStringIO. Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 14 2012, 01:49:35) >>> from cStringIO import StringIO >>> StringIO(u'foo').read() 'f\x00o\x00o\x00' >>>
