Fix for issue 7895. Avoid crashing the interpreter
when calling platform.mac_ver after calling os.fork by
reading from a system configuration file instead of
using OSX APIs.
........
to "sys.platform == 'mac'" and that is
dead code because it refers to a platform
that is no longer supported (and hasn't been
supported for several releases).
Fixes issue #7908 for the trunk.
* Popen() avoids ugly shell escape: target.replace('"', '\\"')
* Use proc.communicate() instead of f.stdout.read()
* Get output from stdout by splitting with ": " instead of splitting by spaces
to support filename with spaces
to return different information than the _sys_version() output
used in previous Python versions.
This also fixes issue5561: platform.python_version_tuple returns tuple of ints, should be strings
Added more tests for the various platform functions.
Turn them into unit tests, and correct an obvious typo:
(("a", "b") ("c", "d") ("e", "f"))
compiles even with the missing commas, but does not execute very well...
that function actually tests something on OSX).
- Add documentation to platform.mac_ver that explains why the middle element
of the return value will not contain useful information.
