Hi Techies, We build python from source adding certain MSVC import libs and binmode.obj during the link time of python.exe. I would like to get the list of libs used by triggering something like perl -V:libs just to make sure if the executable has been built with proper libs from command line. 'binmode.obj' forces all files to open in binary mode as default if mode-flags are not provided. In a C program we can get default mode by getting the value of 'fmode' from 'stdlib.h'. If there is someway even in Python to get the mode of file opened, I would like to know about that and the sample script.
