In Windows, using CopyFileExW and CreateDirectoryExW (with a template directory, for copytree) doesn't agree with how shutil implements copying with separate copyfile and copymode/copystat functions. We'd have to extend copyfile() to support alternate data streams, and we'd have to extend copystat() to support file attributes, extended attributes, and security-resource attributes. Or we'd have to abandon consistency between copy2 and copyfile+copystat. ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue38906> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
