New submission from STINNER Victor: To work on the issue #23694, I refactored the C function _Py_fopen_obj() to raise an exception on error. I noticed the that zipimport replaces the current exception with ZipImportError.
Attached patch chains the ZipImportError to the OSError to provide more context on error. For example, you can see in the unit test that ZipImportError was caused by a permission error. Is it ok to require ZipImport.__context__ to be an OSError in the unit test? Can it be added to "zipimport spec"? If not, the test may be splitted to only check __context__ in a test decorated with @cpython_only. ---------- files: zipimporterror_oserror.patch keywords: patch messages: 238368 nosy: brett.cannon, haypo, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: zipimport: chain ImportError to OSError versions: Python 3.5 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38536/zipimporterror_oserror.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23696> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
