That isn't mentioned in the POSIX open() spec: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/open.html However ENODEV still seems to be a standard errno constant, so why not: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/errno.h.html > Otherwise, wouldn't self.addCleanup be simpler than the large > try/finally block in the test (but it's not available on 2.7)? The problem is if some code tries to create a fd before the cleanup callback is called. With a try/finally block we're guaranteed not to have such a problem. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18756> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
