New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>: Solaris has an additional kind of special files named doors. The standard headers define the following macro:
#define S_ISDOOR(mode) (((mode)&0xF000) == 0xd000) Perhaps it would be nice to include the equivalent in the stat module. (although funnily even the "stat" command doesn't recognize them and displayed "weird file" instead: $ stat /var/run/syslog_door File: `/var/run/syslog_door' Size: 0 Blocks: 0 IO Block: 0 weird file Device: 8bc0000h/146538496d Inode: 44 Links: 1 Access: (0644/Drw-r--r--) Uid: ( 0/ root) Gid: ( 0/ root) Access: 2011-01-26 11:52:34.332492612 +0100 Modify: 2011-01-26 11:52:34.332492612 +0100 Change: 2011-01-26 11:52:34.332499428 +0100 ) ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 127100 nosy: jcea, loewis, movement, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Add S_ISDOOR to the stat module type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11016> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
