I don't mind the idea of an "onerror" callback, but it's adding complexity. Putting aside the question of caching/timing for a second and assuming .lstat() as per the current PEP 471, do we really need per-iteration error handling for readdir()? When would that actually fail in practice? -Ben _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
