I confused matters in my initial message, so your confusion is understandable on this point. To repeat: The request is for a “get the next path generated by a ‘tempfile._get_candidate_names’ generator”, with an approved and documented public API. One suggested name is ‘tempfile.makepath’. > Do you want to add new deprecated from the start function? No. I'm asking for already-implemented and currently-maintained (i.e. not deprecated) standard library code, that is currently neither public nor documented, to gain a public API. Ethan Furman: > I don't see any problem with this. Patches welcome. Thank you, I'll work on a patch soon. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26362> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
