Jens Diemer added the comment: I also with this problems.
I have made a test script. There is a problem with os.chdir(): It doesn't work with \\?\ notation. And there is also a problem, if you use ``` import os import pathlib import tempfile with tempfile.TemporaryDirectory(prefix="path_test_") as path: new_path = pathlib.Path(path, "A"*255, "B"*255) extended_path = "\\\\?\\%s" % new_path os.makedirs(extended_path) print(len(extended_path), extended_path) ``` os.makedirs() will work, but the cleanup will failed. Output is: ``` 567 \\?\C:\Users\jens\AppData\Local\Temp\path_test_8fe6utdz\AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB Traceback (most recent call last): File "D:\test2.py", line 18, in <module> print(len(extended_path), extended_path) File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\tempfile.py", line 807, in __exit__ self.cleanup() File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\tempfile.py", line 811, in cleanup _shutil.rmtree(self.name) File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\shutil.py", line 488, in rmtree return _rmtree_unsafe(path, onerror) File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\shutil.py", line 383, in _rmtree_unsafe onerror(os.unlink, fullname, sys.exc_info()) File "C:\Program Files (x86)\Python35-32\lib\shutil.py", line 381, in _rmtree_unsafe os.unlink(fullname) FileNotFoundError: [WinError 3] Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden: 'C:\\Users\\jens\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\path_test_8fe6utdz\\AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA' ``` ---------- nosy: +jens Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file41820/test.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18199> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
