On the recent python-dev thread, Victor especially made some well thought out suggestions. It seems to me there's general agreement that the basic API in PEP 471 is good (with Ethan not a fan at first, but it seems he's on board after further discussion :-).
I would still like to have 'info' and 'onerror' added to the basic API, but I agree that having methods and caching on first lookup is good.
That said, I think there's basically one thing remaining to decide: whether or not to have DirEntry.is_dir() and .is_file() follow symlinks by default.
We should have a flag for that, and default it to False: scandir(path, *, followlinks=False, info=None, onerror=None) -- ~Ethan~ _______________________________________________ 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
