Brian Curtin 490b32a397 Fix #11939. Set st_dev attribute on Windows to simplify os.path.samefile.
By setting the st_dev attribute, we can then remove some Windows-specific
code and move os.path.samefile/sameopenfile/samestat to Lib/genericpath.py
so all platforms share the same implementation.

Brian Curtin 6285774f06 Implement #7566 - os.path.sameopenfile for Windows.
This uses the GetFileInformationByHandle function to return a tuple of values
to identify a file, then ntpath.sameopenfile compares file tuples, which
is exposed as os.path.sameopenfile.

Brian Curtin c739569be0 Adding versionchanged to the various Windows os.symlink additions, along
with a few minor touchups.
2010-07-09 15:15:09 +00:00
Brian Curtin d40e6f70a5 Implement #1578269. Patch by Jason R. Coombs.
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.
