Category: Extension Modules Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: gyrof (gyrof) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: enhancing os.chown functionality Initial Comment: Hi, I don't think it is currently possible (with os.chown or any other Python library function) to change the groupId of a file without specifying the userId (like posix 'chgrp' does), or to change the userId without specifying the groupId. I would suggest adding the option of having os.chown accept None as either the userId or groupId, and having the function change only the 'non-None' portion of the file ownership. Thanks for your consideration. -g ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1200804&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
