[Simon Dahlbacka] | I'm having trouble with the fact that | win32file.FindFirstChangeNotification seems to not like network paths. | (Or at least that is what I concluded after getting the following | traceback) | | Traceback (most recent call last): | File "C:\Python23\lib\threading.py", line 436, in __bootstrap | self.run() | File | "c:\GSP\Instr\Common\Utilities\LogBrowser\LogFileReaderThread.py", | line 59, in run | False, FILE_NOTIFY_CHANGE_SIZE) | error: (1, 'FindFirstChangeNotification', 'Incorrect function.') | | | Now, I what to indicate to the user that this is not possible. A | direct UNC path is no problem \\foo\bar\blarg.baz | | ..but how do i find out if let's say X:\foo\bar\blarg.baz is a local | path or in fact a mapped network path?
I don't quite understand why this is happening, but to answer your most direct question, here's a snippet of code which may help: <code> import win32net def mapped_drives (): drives = {} resume = 0 while 1: (_drives, total, resume) = win32net.NetUseEnum (None, 0, resume) for drive in _drives: if drive['local']: yield drive['local'], drive['remote'] if not resume: break for letter, mapping in mapped_drives (): if mapping == r"\\voapps\d": print letter break </code> TJG ________________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been scanned for all viruses by Star.
