Similarly for mac_ver, java_ver etc.
>>> platform.mac_ver()
('', ('', '', ''), '')
>>> platform.java_ver()
('', '', ('', '', ''), ('', '', ''))
Maybe it is okay if these functions are present, but can't they raise an exception or return None instead of returning these funny tuples when empty strings ?
I am surprised at Python's inconsistency in such things. For example,
>>> import winsound
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'winsound'
Works as expected on Linux. In the same vein, these functions shouldn't be present as well IMHO - I agree this is debatable of course. |
