[issue7909] os.path.abspath(os.devnull) returns \\\\nul should be nul?

2010-07-31 Thread Georg Brandl 

Georg Brandl ge...@python.org added the comment:

Followed Amaury's suggestion in r83368.  \\.\ and \\?\ as prefixes now cause 
normpath() to return the argument as-is.

Seems fine to me, does not raise any errors. My OS is OS X Snow Leopard. I 
checked it in python 2.5, 2.6, 2.7 too, no issues raised.

From the bug report, it look likes its specific to windows, not OS X.

2010-02-12 Thread Amaury Forgeot d'Arc 

Amaury Forgeot d'Arc amaur...@gmail.com added the comment:

nul is a special dos device
_getfullpathname() correctly returns \\.\nul, but normpath() then simplifies it 
to \\nul

I suggest that normpath() be changed to consider \\.\ as a special prefix, and 
keep it intact when it appears at the start of the path. See also

2010-02-11 Thread Arno Bakker 

New submission from Arno Bakker abak...@users.sourceforge.net:

I encountered this when somebody used:

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.CRITICAL,
format='%(asctime)s %(levelname)-8s %(message)s',
datefmt='%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S',
filename=os.devnull,
filemode='w')

the logging code apparently calls os.path.abspath(filename) somewhere,
causing an exception:
 File c:\python264\lib\logging\__init__.py, line 838, in _open
   stream = open(self.baseFilename, self.mode)
   IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'nul'
