New submission from Colin David Chen: os.walk in 3.6rc1 (Windows) appears to generate different output depending on its invocation.
In the first invocation, I use the generator to yield one result at a time: source = "C:\\cdchen_data\\downloads\\python-xlib-0.18\\" texasranger = os.walk(Path(source)) roottree = [next(texasranger)] roottree[0][0] Output: 'C:\\cdchen_data\\downloads\\python-xlib-0.18' The same result occurs when using the generator in a for loop. In the second invocation, I generate the complete list first: sourcetree = [x for x in os.walk(source)] sourcetree[0][0] Output: 'C:\\cdchen_data\\downloads\\python-xlib-0.18\\' The particular behavior causing me trouble is the omission in the first result of the final '\\'. I checked in 2.7.6 and os.walk is consistent and I believe more correct in that it will yield equivalent results and includes the '\\'. Not sure if earlier Python 3 implementations have this problem, I couldn't get 3.5 to run this function without failing. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 283221 nosy: Colin David Chen priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: os.walk generator vs type: behavior versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28975> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
