[issue10395] new os.path function to extract common prefix based on path components
Rafik Draoui added the comment: Here is a new patch addressing some of storchaka review comments, and implementing a version in ntpath. For the Windows version, I did as proposed in msg174819, but as I am not familiar with the semantics and subtleties of paths in Windows maybe this version of ntpath.commonpath is too simplistic and would return wrong results in some cases. I would like someone more knowledgeable in Windows to take care of it, or maybe just provide a test suite with lots of different corner cases that I could use to provide a better implementation. -- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27899/patch10395-2 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10395 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue10395] new os.path function to extract common prefix based on path components
Rafik Draoui added the comment: Here is a patch with an implementation of os.path.commonpath, along with tests and documentation. At the moment, this is only implemented for POSIX, as I don't feel like I know enough about Windows to tackle drive letters and UNC in paths without spending some more time on it. This probably needs more tests for corner cases. -- nosy: +rafik Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27883/patch10395 ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue10395 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
