in lib/test/test_os.py, there is a test class, Win32ErrorTests, that tests that certain functions return a WindowsError on failure. And indeed they do that, but that is in contradiction with the documentation. From the 2.6 docs: Note All functions in this module raise OSError in the case of invalid or inaccessible file names and paths, or other arguments that have the correct type, but are not accepted by the operating system. |

WindowsError is a subclass of OSError, so it's not entirely contradictory, just a little misleading... :-) |
