Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Windows Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John Ehresman (jpe) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: os.path.join() fails if 2nd arg is a UNC path Initial Comment: os.path.join('c:', r'\server\share') returns c:\server\share rather than \server\share. Interestingly os.path.join('c:a', r'\server\share') returns r'\server\share'. IMHO, r'\server\share' should be returned in all cases. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-05-31 12:25 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 This is a difficult issue, since as far as I recall Windows allows two or more backslashes in a row in the middle of normal paths. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1209447&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
