Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: I suggest a more generic and powerful API change:
copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None) -> None becomes: copytree(src, dst, symlinks=False, ignore=None, callback=None) -> None where callback, if not None, is called with each (filename, src_dir, dst_dir) and can return either True or False depending on whether the copy must really occur or not. Then you should be able implement the four distutils option in terms of the callback. ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4843> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
