Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: If it's just additional constants then I don't see the problem. We already have a lot of platform-specific constants.
However, it would be a lot better if the io module were made to work properly with these constants, too. There are a lot of places where we hardcode tests such as `whence == SEEK_SET` or even `whence == 0`, and whence values above 2 aren't generally considered. So the patch is probably a bit less trivial than what you imagine :) ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10142> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
