From 61cd0db3d2d3f78c85ba7c1ee52b5df63837a8ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tim Peters Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2003 21:10:21 +0000 Subject: Don't quote the path to Python unless the path contains an embedded space. Quoting the path doesn't work on Win2K (cmd.exe) regardless, this is just a hack to let the test pass again on Win2K (so long as Python isn't installed in a path that does contain an embedded space). On Win2K it looks like we'd also have to add a second pair of double quotes, around the entire command line. --- Lib/test/test_popen.py | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'Lib/test/test_popen.py') diff --git a/Lib/test/test_popen.py b/Lib/test/test_popen.py index 7a0ef9be07..2b687ad31e 100644 --- a/Lib/test/test_popen.py +++ b/Lib/test/test_popen.py @@ -14,8 +14,11 @@ from os import popen # python -c "import sys;print sys.argv" {rest_of_commandline} # This results in Python being spawned and printing the sys.argv list. # We can then eval() the result of this, and see what each argv was. +python = sys.executable +if ' ' in python: + python = '"' + python + '"' # quote embedded space for cmdline def _do_test_commandline(cmdline, expected): - cmd = '"%s" -c "import sys;print sys.argv" %s' % (sys.executable, cmdline) + cmd = '%s -c "import sys;print sys.argv" %s' % (python, cmdline) data = popen(cmd).read() got = eval(data)[1:] # strip off argv[0] if got != expected: -- cgit v1.2.1
