New submission from Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org>:
We currently do not provide the standard access type constants anywhere, despite providing some of the specific access type flags (e.g. in `winreg`): #define DELETE (0x00010000L) #define READ_CONTROL (0x00020000L) #define WRITE_DAC (0x00040000L) #define WRITE_OWNER (0x00080000L) #define SYNCHRONIZE (0x00100000L) #define STANDARD_RIGHTS_REQUIRED (0x000F0000L) #define STANDARD_RIGHTS_READ (READ_CONTROL) #define STANDARD_RIGHTS_WRITE (READ_CONTROL) #define STANDARD_RIGHTS_EXECUTE (READ_CONTROL) #define STANDARD_RIGHTS_ALL (0x001F0000L) #define SPECIFIC_RIGHTS_ALL (0x0000FFFFL) I'm not sure where the best place to expose them would be. `os` (`nt`) seems best, but it's 99% a POSIX shim that doesn't actually have anything Windows-specific exposed, and `_winapi` is not public. They're likely already available through pywin32 or similar, but given their use with `winreg` we should probably at least make them available there. ---------- components: Windows messages: 348908 nosy: paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Provide Windows predefined access type constants type: enhancement versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37746> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
