Eryk Sun <eryk...@gmail.com> added the comment: A sub-millisecond wait is fairly quick, but it depends on the machine speed. I should have included a counter. Try the following. It's not reproducing the problem if num_retries doesn't get incremented.
import os import time ERROR_DIR_NOT_EMPTY = 145 PARENT_PATH = 'foo' CHILD_PATH = os.path.join(PARENT_PATH, 'bar') os.rmdir(CHILD_PATH) num_retries = 0 t0 = time.perf_counter() while True: try: os.rmdir(PARENT_PATH) break except OSError as e: if e.winerror != ERROR_DIR_NOT_EMPTY: raise num_retries += 1 wait_time = time.perf_counter() - t0 print('num_retries:', num_retries) print('wait_time:', wait_time) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33240> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
