Isaac Morland added the comment: The only thing I found in the bug database concerning os.makedirs was Issue 766910 (http://bugs.python.org/issue766910). I realized os.makedirs had a race condition because in my application I want to create directories but it's perfectly fine if they already exist. This is exactly what trace.py in Issue 766910 seems to need.
I started writing my own, which was basically just os.makedirs but calling my own version of os.mkdir which didn't worry about already-existing directories, but realized that wouldn't work. Eventually I ended up with the routines I've put in the attached makedirs.py. I think os.makedirs can be fixed by making what is now its recursive call instead call my version of makedirs. I also think both my mkdir and my makedirs should be present in the standard library as well as the existing versions. Possibly this could be done by adding a flag to the existing versions, defaulted to obtain the current behaviour. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1675> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
