New submission from Christian Heimes: Related to #11016 I like to deprecate the S_IF* constants in favor of the S_IS*() functions.
rationals: http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/sys_stat.h.html No new S_IFMT symbolic names for the file type values of mode_t will be defined by POSIX.1-2008; if new file types are required, they will only be testable through S_ISxx() or S_TYPEISxxx() macros instead. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Library (Lib) messages: 188641 nosy: christian.heimes, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Deprecate stat.S_IF* integer constants type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17924> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
