Jesús Cea Avión <j...@jcea.es> added the comment: Given the behaviour of Solaris DOORS, the flags selected are very cleverly chosen. Sensible engineering :).
But now I am wondering... Which organization defines flags like S_IFSOCK or S_IFIFO?. Posix members?. I am worried about flag collision between OSs. For instance, if DOORS were a real flag defined in Solaris, how other OSs would know to not reuse that flag for some other purpose? :). Your comment is very valuable and solve my doubts about it. Implementation is truly trivial and could be supported everywhere. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
