AJNeufeld added the comment: I'd like this issue to be reopened. It does not appear resolved. It is different from the wantobjects=False issue.
Windows 7 has 'libraries' which are folders containing the contents of more than one folder. For instance, on my computer > Libraries > Documents presents the contents of the following 2 folders simultaneously: C:\Users\aneufeld\Documents C:\Users\Public\Documents If you execute the script listed in the original bug report, press the [File Open] button, press "Libraries" from the left bar, double click "Documents" in the main area, and select one or more *FILES* in the displayed list of files, I get back: ('',) On the other hand, if I press "Computer" on the left bar, and navigate through "C:", "Users", "aneufeld", "My Documents", and select the SAME FILES, I get back: ('C:/Users/aneufeld/Documents/timelog.txt', 'C:/Users/aneufeld/Documents/notes.txt') >From the "> Libraries > Documents" folder, if you navigate into any real >folder, the problem goes away. For example, with the folder ATS in My >Documents, press the [File Open] button, press "Libraries" from the left bar, >double click "Documents" in the main area, double click ATS, and select the >two files, I get: ('C:/Users/aneufeld/Documents/ATS/readme.txt', 'C:/Users/aneufeld/Documents/ATS/Changes.txt') The issue is, when the file "Foo.txt" is selected in a Library folder, such as "Documents", the dialog does not know if that file should be: C:/Users/aneufeld/Documents/Foo.txt or C:/Users/Public/Documents/Foo.txt and returns a null string for the filename. ---------- nosy: +AJNeufeld _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18877> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
