Ned Deily added the comment: Thanks for the additional tests, Garrett. I've applied them (modulo a fix). I've also applied the corrections to configure which should make os.chflags() and os.lchflags() reappear again in BSD and OS X builds where supported. I've also added and documented two

Garrett Cooper added the comment: I apologize for taking so long with this. The attached patch is for test_posix against trunk (I shuffled around some code and extended some things to improve PosixTester.tearDown). Let me know if I need to wash, rinse, repeat for py3k, etc. Thanks! # Standa

Ronald Oussoren added the comment: Tests for the posix module should go in test_posix. The name 'posix' is used very loosely in python, it is basicly used as an alias for 'unixy'. I'm not too happy about replicating the definition of the flags, as Ned noted the flags are also defined in Lib/s

Garrett Cooper added the comment: *NOUNLINK was not implemented by OSX, so there's actually a bug with the compile tests if you take that into consideration. And again, only FreeBSD defines *NOUNLINK. The other BSDs, not so much. As far as the reason why I implemented the flags, the documenta

Ned Deily added the comment: Actually the flags do already exist: note "(as defined in the stat module)" (http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/os.html#os.chflags). Other than the new UF_HIDDEN, it looks like they are all hardwired there in Lib/stat.py. There is something to be said for the a

Garrett Cooper added the comment: Do you prefer exhaustive tests, or just smoke tests? Honestly IMO, the OS should come prepackaged with tests to ensure that things function according to the requirements set forth in the manpage, so I would prefer the latter because the os methods in the posi

Garrett Cooper added the comment: That definitely fixes detection for FreeBSD CURRENT with 2.7 and py3k for me. I'm looking into providing some unit-tests, but the problem is that whether or not chflags functions on the underlying filesystem is problematic. For instance, it won't function on
