New submission from Richard Nienaber <rjniena...@gmail.com>: According to Microsoft documentation (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms724884(v=vs.85).aspx) when using the REG_EXPAND_SZ value type, environment variables (e.g. %programfiles%) should be expanded to their values (e.g. 'C:\Program Files').
I've added a test case that reproduces this error. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: testcase-24042.py messages: 126368 nosy: rjnienaber priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Environment variables are not expanded in _winreg when using REG_EXPAND_SZ. versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file20418/testcase-24042.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10919> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
