New submission from Steven D'Aprano <steve+pyt...@pearwood.info>:
See #37515. Perhaps Windows builds can check for reserved file names and give a more descriptive error message in the event of IO error? (Eryksun also mentions two reserved names which Microsoft apparently does not document: "CONIN$" and "CONOUT$".) ---------- components: Windows messages: 347456 nosy: CarK, SilentGhost, eryksun, paul.moore, steve.dower, steven.daprano, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improve error messages for Windows reserved file names versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37517> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
