Ronald Oussoren <ronaldousso...@mac.com> added the comment: Alexander: What makes you think r63955 introduced the problem? Btw. This does not crash the interpreter: the example you give causes an exception and cleanly shuts down the interpreter. The exception is unwanted, but I wouldn't call it a crash.
The Apple fix for getgroups in python2.6 is odd, it uses an undocumented API (getgrouplist_2). If I read the manpage correctly there is a posixly correct way to implement os.getgroups: * call getgroups(MAX_GROUPS,...) * if that fails: call getgroups(0,...), the result is groupcount * allocate an array of groupcount gid_t's and call getgroups(groupcount) I'll work on a patch that implements this. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7900> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
