[issue16656] os.walk ignores international dirs on Windows
Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Thanks, Anatoly. I see an actual bug. FindFirstFile and FindNextFile return broken name if file unicode name can't be represented in current codepage. I don't know what is perfect solution for this issue. On 2.7 we can decode listdir() argument to unicode and then encode result names to str with sys.getfilesystemencoding() only if it is possible. Therefore listdir() with str argument will return unicode for non-encodable names. This should not make many new problems in addition to those which 2.7 already have with Unicode. But on 3.x listdir() with bytes argument can returns only bytes objects. I don't know what to do with non-encodable names in such case. Perhaps an exception should be raised. Fortunately listdir() with bytes argument is rarely used on 3.x. -- components: +Extension Modules, Unicode, Windows -Library (Lib) nosy: +ezio.melotti, larry, loewis ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16656 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue16656] os.walk ignores international dirs on Windows
Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Surrogateescape is for non-decodable names. Here we have a problem with non-encodable names. I know that naive approach with using only Unicode API inside is not work because Windows use complex logic for filename encoding (for example dropping diacritics).

R. David Murray added the comment: Ah, I misunderstood your comment. So, listdir is returning the correct the filename, it's just that we can't encode it to the console encoding. So, it is working as expected within the current windows console limitations, if not in a particularly useful fashion.

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: Ah, I misunderstood your comment. Ah, you misunderstood my comment right now. So, listdir is returning the correct the filename, it's just that we can't encode it to the console encoding. listdir() returns already irremediably broken filename (all Cyrillic letters replaced with '?').

Éric Araujo added the comment: Anatoly b'Русское имя' is not a valid syntax construct in Python 3 even though I have correct 'coding: utf-8' header and expect characters to be utf-8 bytes. David The byte string vs the coding cookie is an interesting observation, but is a separate issue and should probably be raised on python-ideas, since I'm guessing it the current behavior was a conscious design choice. Yes, it works as designed: the coding cookie is used to decode bytes to characters in unicode literals (e.g. if I have u'Éric' in my source file, not a \u escape); bytes literals are independent of the coding cookie and should always contain only bytes, not characters (including \u escapes), e.g. '\xc3\x89ric' for UTF-8 bytes. -- nosy: +eric.araujo ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16656 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue16656] os.walk ignores international dirs on Windows
anatoly techtonik added the comment: In Python 3 it fails with UnicodeEncodeError in C:\Python33\lib\encodings\cp437.py, while Vista's 'dir' command shows everything correctly in the same console, so somebody definitely overlooked that aspect. This bug is clearly an issue for developers who write products for international markets. It is neither out of date, nor it is invalid. Note in documentation in red is a must have, also a warning should be issued in warning mode when os.walk() ignores international dirs. I doubt there are many people who aware of this racist behavior and want it be default. -- resolution: invalid - status: closed - pending ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16656 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

Jeremy Kloth added the comment: The problem exhibited is not coming from the os.walk() implementation, but from the use of a byte-string as the argument to it. The directories are created with unicode literals and therefore the argument must also be a unicode literal (u'.') for them to be shown. See the note in the listdir() documentation. As it stands, I suggest that this is closed as invalid, or at the minimum that it could be a documentation bug for walk() not also having a similar note as listdir(). -- nosy: +jkloth ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue16656 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
