New submission from Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org>:
Because the abspath() call is deferred until the end of the resolution process, if the current working directory is not already a real path, it will not be fully resolved. By passing it through abspath() at the start of the function, we ensure that the correct path is resolved. This will help resolve some inconsistencies in the test suite when tests are launched with a short filename (FILENA~1) in the working directory (though some other fixes are probably needed to help here). ---------- components: Windows messages: 354509 nosy: eryksun, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: ntpath.realpath() should make absolute path earlier type: behavior versions: Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38453> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
