Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Library (Lib) Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Greg Klanderman (gregklanderman) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: add optional CWD argument to os.path.abspath() Initial Comment: I would like to add an optional second argument to os.path.abspath() to allow specifying the directory with respect to which the path should be made absolute. This would be much like the optional second argument of the expand-file-name function in emacs: (expand-file-name NAME &optional DEFAULT-DIRECTORY) The patch is against python 2.2.2. I am running RH 6.3 linux but that should not matter. thanks Greg Klanderman [EMAIL PROTECTED] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Collin Winter (collinwinter) Date: 2007-03-11 20:49 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1344176 Originator: NO What's your motivating use-case for this? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Johannes Gijsbers (jlgijsbers) Date: 2004-08-21 08:55 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=469548 Well, depends on what you mean by 'support'. I don't think anyone seriously objects, but there doesn't seem to be anyone who really cares either. That usually means that if you care enough to create a complete implementation (including tests and documentation changes) yourself, the patch will be accepted. So please submit a new patch if you do care enough. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Greg Klanderman (gregklanderman) Date: 2003-02-05 13:09 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=698972 i can submit a patch for those other versions of abspath. but i'd rather know whether there is support for this change before doing that. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) Date: 2003-02-05 05:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=357491 And don't forget riscospath.py found in the plat-risc directory in Lib in the source distribution. =) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Brett Cannon (bcannon) Date: 2003-02-05 05:06 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=357491 What about ntpath.py and os2emxpath.py? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Greg Klanderman (gregklanderman) Date: 2003-01-30 20:28 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=698972 sorry, trying again to attach the patch.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=677890&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
