Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com> added the comment: This new version of the patch provides a workaround for the issue1686475 regression. It simply falls back to the traditional (symlink-naive) stat behavior when a handle cannot be obtained for the specified filename. My intention is that we can commit this patch (as it's still a strict improvement over the previous behavior), and work out a fully-symlink aware stat method in a subsequent patch.
There are still regression tests in test_posixpath.py that are failing due to the non-implementation of realpath. I'll tackle this task next. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15198/windows symlink draft 11.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1578269> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
