|\ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On platforms that do not support (symbolic) links, tarfile offers a work-around and extracts a link in an archive as the regular file the link is pointing to.

* Issue #9065: no longer use "root" as the default for theLars Gustäbel2010-10-041-4/+4

If tarfile creates a new archive and adds a file with a uid/gid that doesn't have a corresponding name on the system (e.g. because the user/group account was deleted) it uses the empty string in the uname/gname field now instead of "root". Using "root" as the default was a bad idea because on extraction the uname/gname fields are supposed to override the uid/gid fields. So, all archive members with nameless uids/gids belonged to the root user after extraction.

* Implement #1578269. Patch by Jason R. Coombs.Brian Curtin2010-07-081-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Added Windows support for os.symlink when run on Windows 6.0 or greater, aka Vista. Previous Windows versions will raise NotImplementedError when trying to symlink. Includes numerous test updates and additions to test_os, including a symlink_support module because of the fact that privilege escalation is required in order to run the tests to ensure that the user is able to create symlinks. By default, accounts do not have the required privilege, so the escalation code will have to be exposed later (or documented on how to do so). I'll be following up with that work next. Note that the tests use ctypes, which was agreed on during the PyCon language summit.

* Issue #8633: Support for POSIX.1-2008 binary pax headers.Lars Gustäbel2010-05-171-10/+72
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | tarfile is now able to read and write pax headers with a "hdrcharset=BINARY" record. This record was introduced in POSIX.1-2008 as a method to store unencoded binary strings that cannot be translated to UTF-8. In practice, this is just a workaround that allows a tar implementation to store filenames that do not comply with the current filesystem encoding and thus cannot be decoded correctly. Additionally, tarfile works around a bug in current versions of GNU tar: undecodable filenames are stored as-is in a pax header without a "hdrcharset" record being added. Technically, these headers are invalid, but tarfile manages to read them correctly anyway.

TarFile's errorlevel argument controls how errors are handled that occur during extraction. There are three possible levels 0, 1 and 2. If errorlevel is set to 1 or 2 fatal errors (e.g. a full filesystem) are raised as exceptions. If it is set to 0, which is the default value, extraction errors are suppressed, and error messages are written to the debug log instead. But, if the debug log is not activated, which is the default as well, all these errors go unnoticed. The original intention was to imitate GNU tar which tries to extract as many members as possible instead of stopping on the first error. It turns out that this is no good default behaviour for a tar library. This patch simply changes the default value for the errorlevel argument from 0 to 1, so that fatal extraction errors are raised as EnvironmentError exceptions. ........

(Note that an empty archive is not the same as an empty file. An empty archive contains no members and is correctly terminated with an EOF block full of zeros. An empty file contains no data at all.) The problem was that although tarfile was able to create empty archives, it failed to open them raising a ReadError. On the other hand, tarfile opened empty files without error in most read modes and presented them as empty archives. (However, some modes still raised errors: "r|gz" raised ReadError, but "r:gz" worked, "r:bz2" even raised EOFError.) In order to get a more fine-grained control over the various internal error conditions I now split up the HeaderError exception into a number of meaningful sub-exceptions. This makes it easier in the TarFile.next() method to react to the different conditions in the correct way. The visible change in its behaviour now is that tarfile will open empty archives correctly and raise ReadError consistently for empty files. ........
