New submission from Steve Dower: According to https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx we can opt-out of MAX_PATH limitations on a selection of functions on the latest version of Windows 10. This will allow unprefixed paths (i.e. no "\\?\") to exceed 260 characters for many common functions.
I will enable this for Python 3.6. ---------- assignee: steve.dower components: Windows messages: 272385 nosy: paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Opt-out of MAX_PATH on Windows 10 type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27731> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
