Terry J. Reedy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: For more information: in 3.0, os.curdir, os.pardir, os.sep, os.altsep, os.pathsep, os.defpath, and os.devnull are also in os.path. Only os.extset was removed from os. Among the sysinfo constants, only os.linesep was not in os.path. I think either all names or none should be duplicated.
The doc for os.path begins "This module implements some useful functions on pathnames". The duplication of the sysinfo constants is not mentioned! (Though perhaps is should be "Also, as a convenience, the system information constants from os are available here also.") So if they are only in one place, it should be os, not os.path. In any case, the removal of extpath and only that from os is gratuitous breakage. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4401> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
