Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: You almost gave the answer in your question - the FILE_TIME is about to be converted to a time_t greater than 2**31.
in posixmodule.c::FILE_TIME_to_time_t_nsec(), a comment says: /* XXX Win32 supports time stamps past 2038; we currently don't */ just before the assert()... And indeed to reproduce the same crash it is enough to call os.stat() on a file with a creation date in 2050 for example. ---------- nosy: +amaury.forgeotdarc _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4379> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
