New submission from dobbelaj <jeroen.dobbela...@gmail.com>: The 'os.stat' method on windows seems to be hardcoded to check the file name extension when computing the 'executable permission flag' (st_mode).
(See Modules/posixmodule.c: win32_stat and win32_wstat) Currently, it checks for : '.bat', '.cmd', '.exe', '.com' As dynamic libraries also must be executable on window, t should also check for : '.dll' It would be even better if the actual 'read and execute' permission is returned. ---------- components: Windows messages: 126004 nosy: jeroen.dobbelaere priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: os.stat(filepath).st_mode gives wrong 'executable permission' result type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10888> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
