Hi,
I think I have found a bug in python but it could be a Windows bug. With
os.spawnvc in this form:
error_code = os.spawnvc(P_WAIT, proggie, args, environment)
where,
proggie is a program to run with args in the environment.
If args is a list (as it must be) then spawnvc chops off the first
element of the list. You can see this by running:
ec = os.spawnvc(P_WAIT, 'test.bat', ['a', 'b', 'c'], [])
test.bat:
@echo %0 %1 %2 %3 %4 %5
Which results in:
C>test.bat b c
instead of
C>test.bat a b c
Could someone confirm that this is a bug or that I have stuffed up?
Cheers,
Anthony Pfrunder
