New submission from Eryk Sun <eryk...@gmail.com>: In issue 26330 it was noted that nt._getdiskusage doesn't accept bytes paths. The same applies to nt._getvolumepathname and nt._getfinalpathname. Callers of these functions shouldn't have to manually implement PEP 529 UTF-8 support to handle input and output bytes paths.
On the other hand, nt._getfullpathname works with a bytes path since it takes a `path_t` argument instead of `unicode` or `Py_UNICODE`. The above 3 functions could be rewritten to use `path_t` for the input path, and then encode the output path via PyUnicode_EncodeFSDefault if path->narrow is set. ---------- components: Library (Lib), Unicode, Windows messages: 309990 nosy: eryksun, ezio.melotti, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, vstinner, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: support bytes paths in nt _getdiskusage, _getvolumepathname, and _getfinalpathname type: enhancement versions: Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32556> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
