New submission from Hernan Grecco: In Windows and OSX, `find_library` returns the full pathname of the library file. But on Linux, it returns just the filename. Is there a reason for this difference?
For consistency, it would be better to return the full pathname in all cases. It is easy to get the filename from the full pathname, but not the other way around. ---------- components: ctypes messages: 214647 nosy: Hernan.Grecco priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: ctypes.util.find_library() should return full pathname instead of filename in linux versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21042> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
