Message 55923 - Python tracker (original) (raw)

I can confirm the code in question was removed and that long filenames are possible in 2.5. Eg:

import os p = "\\?\" + os.getcwdu() for i in range(10): p = os.path.join(p, 'x' * 100) os.mkdir(p) os.stat(p) print len(p)

I don't think Python should try and hide this madness, so I'm marking it as closed.
