[Python-Dev] Exception type on handling closed files (original) (raw)

Look:

a = file("dir/foo") a.close() a.read()

Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#28>", line 1, in -toplevel- a.read() ValueError: I/O operation on closed file

Shoudn't this raise IOError? Seems more semantically correct to me.
