anatoly techtonik <techto...@gmail.com> added the comment: Brian, in case you remove previous directory - you will get the same exception that in the following code.
prev = os.chdir(somepath) os.rmdir(prev) os.chdir(prev) Senthil, your arguments are strange. Both use cases are at least useful for me (if not intuitive). I also can't see how can I verify you assumptions by looking at the code. If you want to say that not every piece of code need to return to parent directory after chdir - that's pretty obvious. If you had a list of use cases for os.chdir() - I could go through them to mark where this can be used (or not). label:api ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9097> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
