Hi All, I have a program which fetches the list of files inside a directory. For fetching this list I am making use of the glob.glob method which takes path as a parameter. For building the path I am making use of os.path.join. My code looks somewhat like this: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- import glob import os path = 'E:\mktrisk\service\marketdata\da' for filename in glob.glob(os.path.join(path,'*.java')): datafile = open(filename,'r').readlines() ----------------------------------------------------------------------
this program works fine when the string 'path' is not too long. When I pass a longer string as path, the program doesn't work. Now I am not sure whether its a limitation with the string class or with os.path. I am passing a valid path to the program and I am running this on Python 2.4.2 on Windows XP. Any help will be greatly appreciated. regards, Daya -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
