Hi folks, I'd be interested in contributing to this issue, since it seems "easy" enough, but I'm unsure that consensus was reached about the right solution. >From what I gathered from Giampaolo's comments, we have solutions that should >work for Unix-y systems and MacOS. So that's clear. For Windows though, I'm unsure. It appears, we'd need kernel-mode-enabled clients to do this and maybe that's enough to discourage this effort altogether. So it appears we have 3 options then: 1. Implement a new function that copies ownership in linux+mac but not in Windows. Then to document that difference. 2. Implement a new function that copies ownership in linux+mac, then use the native NT API to achieve the same result in Windows. Document the limitations 3. Just document the existing limitations. Do we have a preference? I do not, just excited to potentially contribute something :) Thanks! ---------- nosy: +davidmrdavid _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue30044> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
