Ralf Schmitt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: my manpage (debian testing) states:
POSIX.1-2001 permits strerror() to set errno if the call encounters an error, but does not specify what value should be returned as the func‐ tion result in the event of an error. On some systems, strerror() returns NULL if the error number is unknown. On other systems, str‐ error() returns a string something like "Error nnn occurred" and sets errno to EINVAL if the error number is unknown. So, I think this patch should be rejected. ---------- nosy: +schmir __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2413> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
