PureWindowsPath('C:\\Users')
When I call __str__ method of PureWindowsPath on Windows,Cygwin,Linux enviroment, I get "C:\Users" as expected. But when I run the same code on MingW environment I get "C:/Users".
from pathlib import PureWindowsPath, Path
p = PureWindowsPath('C:\\Users')
print(str(p))

MinGW Python sets os.sep to "/" and os.altsep to "\\". It also swaps _WindowsFlavour.sep and _WindowsFlavour.altsep in pathlib. This seems dubious to me. Technically the Windows API supports both backslash and slash as path separators, but in practice many API functions only support backslash (e.g. the path functions such as PathCchSkipRoot). Anyway, it's a third-party issue. You'll have to report it to the MinGW maintainers if you want it resolved, or to at least get an informed reason why the change is necessary. |
