The mixed case is interesting. We could use CreateProcessW when at least one string is Unicode, and CreateProcessA when all strings are bytes. OTOH this is unlikely, because for example the environment will be passed as unicode; so I'm OK to use CreateProcessW in all cases, and use mbcs to convert bytes. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8393> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
