New submission from Barney Gale <barney.g...@gmail.com>:
Under-the-hood functionality in pathlib is divided between: - The 'flavour', which implements path syntax (separators, casefolding, etc) - The 'accessor', which accesses the local (file)system. The '_WindowsFlavour/_PosixFlavour.resolve()' function is misplaced, as it requires OS calls such as `os.getcwd()`, `os.readlink()`, and `nt._getfinalpathname()`. While the implementation *does* differ across Windows and POSIX, it's still properly part of the accessor interface, and not the flavour interface. In preparation for addressing bpo-24132 I'd like to get these interfaces really tidy. Once bpo-39899 is fixed, this will be the last remaining flavour method that does accessor-y things. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 390397 nosy: barneygale priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pathlib: move 'resolve()' logic out of path flavour type: enhancement versions: Python 3.10 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43757> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
