Hi all, I've been looking at python 2.5 today and what I notices is absense of spawnvp with this comment in os.py:
# At the moment, Windows doesn't implement spawnvp[e], # so it won't have spawnlp[e] either. I'm wondering, why so? Searching MSDN I can see that these functions are implemented in CRT: spawnvp: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/275khfab.aspx spawnvpe: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/h565xwht.aspx I can also see that spawnvp and spawnvpe are currently wrapped in posixmodule.c, but for some reason on OS/2 only. Forgive me if I'm wrong but shouldn't it work when #if defined(PYOS_OS2) is changed to #if defined(PYOS_OS2) || defined(MS_WINDOWS) around spawnvp and spawnvpe wrappers and in posix_methods? At least when I did it with my copy, nt.spawnvp seems to work fine... _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
