New submission from Brian Curtin <cur...@acm.org>: The _winreg module could use the addition of the RegCreateKeyEx call, as evidenced by this thread on c.l.py: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2009-November/614023.html This expanded API would benefit users trying to create keys with access masks (like KEY_WOW64_64KEY), which you can't set through _winreg.CreateKey.
The patch includes the change to _winreg.c, along with doc and test changes. Comments/suggestions appreciated. ---------- components: Extension Modules files: winreg_add_createkeyex.patch keywords: patch messages: 95434 nosy: brian.curtin severity: normal status: open title: Patch - add RegCreateKeyEx to _winreg type: feature request versions: Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file15359/winreg_add_createkeyex.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7347> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
