^ just to bring my previous comment up-to-date: I'm no longer pursuing adding `os.path.isreserved()` and `os.path.fileuri()` functions, or modifying `normpath()`. At least, not for now! Instead, my plan is to move flavour functionality as follows (as classmethods with underscore prefixes): _Flavour --> PurePath _PosixFlavour --> PurePath _WindowsFlavour --> PureWindowsPath As a result, PurePath will use POSIX syntax by default. This is fully backwards-compatible, as users can't create PurePath objects! PurePath.__new__() instantiates PurePosixPath or PureWindowsPath. But it will matter for future user subclasses of PurePath/Path, where we usually want POSIX syntax. I think there will be three PRs involved. PR 30320 and PR 30321 move _Flavour.make_uri() and _Flavour.is_reserved() respectively; these are reasonably standalone. If/when they land, I'll make a larger PR that moves the remaining methods into PurePath and PureWindowsPath. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44136> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
