Summary: os.spawnv fails when argv is a length 1 tuple
Initial Comment:
os.spawnv fails when argv is a length 1 tuple.
For example, this will fail:
os.spawnv (os.P_WAIT, '/bin/pwd', ('/bin/pwd'))
Bug exists on Python 2.4.3 on FreeBSD.
Bug exists on Python 2.3.5 on Gentoo Linux.
Longer example:
----
$ cat test.py
import os
path = '/bin/pwd'
print
print 'calling os.spawnv with length 1 tuple...'
print 'exit code:', os.spawnv ( os.P_WAIT, path, ( path ) )
print
print 'calling os.spawnv with length 1 list...'
print 'exit code:', os.spawnv ( os.P_WAIT, path, [ path ] )
print
----
----
$ python test.py
calling os.spawnv with length 1 tuple...
exit code: 127
calling os.spawnv with length 1 list...
/home/private
exit code: 0

My apologies. I'm new to python and had not realize that
( x )
is not a tuple, while
( x, )
is a tuple.
