Steve and/or Eryk, I was adding some tests for os.readlink() in PR 8740 and I noticed that os.readlink() always returns str on Windows. However, the documentation for os.readlink() says: If the path is a bytes object (direct or indirectly), the result will be a bytes object. The question is, should I add support for bytes as part of PR 8740? And what is the best way to implement it? (e.g. use CreateFileA() if PyUnicode_Check(path.object) returns false?) ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34384> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
