STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: os.getcwdb() (GetCurrentDirectoryA) and os.listdir(bytes) (FindNextFileA & co) encode filenames using WideCharToMultiByte() in default mode (flags=0): unencodable characters are replaced by question marks. Such filenames cannot be used, open() fails with OSError(22, "invalid argument: '?'") for example.
Attached patch changes os.getcwdb() and os.listdir(bytes) to use the Windows native API (wide character API) with Python MBCS codec in strict mode (error handler "strict") to notify directly the user that the filename cannot be decoded. The patch only changes the behaviour for filename not encodable to the ANSI code page, such filenames are rare. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23521/os_mbcs.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13247> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
