I know this should be obvious, but how does one raise a specific type of
OSError?
When I attempt to perform a file operation on a non-existent file, I get
an OSError: [Errno 2], but what if I want to raise one of those myself?
Thanks in advance,
-Dave

To raise a specific error, just find the error that you want to raise,
then give the error a text string to print: ex.
raise IOError("This raises an IO error")
On the stderr output, when the routine hits this line, you will get: raise IOError("This raises an IOError")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
IOError: This raises an IOError
Just be sure of the error that you want to raise, since some of them
will do stuff like closing open file descriptors as well.
I do not see the point in doing so (why not just copy+paste that
string?), but the errno (specifically ENOENT) corresponds to the
POSIX.1 error number, and the string "No such file or directory" is
done in C via strerror(ENOENT ); (check errno(3) and strerror(3)).
I doubt there is something that does this in the standard library
(just checked, there's an errno module, but it is quite sparse), but a
simple C extension would be trivial to write.
However, the best way is just to copy and paste that text into your
program, I mean, why not?
raise OSError("[Errno 2] No such file or directory")

I know how to raise a basic OSError or IOError, but what if I want to raise specifically an "OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory"? Somehow it must be possible to raise the error with the correct information to bring up the standard message, but where do I find the right values to give?

Looking at the Python docs.. I found this: http://docs.python.org/ext/errors.html
"""
Another useful function is PyErr_SetFromEr rno(), which only takes an
exception argument and constructs the associated value by inspection
of the global variable errno. The most general function is
PyErr_SetObject (), which takes two object arguments, the exception and
its associated value. You don't need to Py_INCREF() the objects passed
to any of these functions.
"""
So, in a C extension, to raise a a specific OSError...
errno = ENOENT;
PyErr_SetFromEr rno(PyExc_OSErr or);
should work...

Can somebody loan me a clue as to how to check the errno on
an OSError, as described below?
try:
os.makedirs(d)
except OSError:
# if errno == 17 then silently ignore the error because the
# other process won the race condition and created the directory
# otherwise, allow the exception to percolate up the call stack

Using Python 2.3.5 on Windows XP, I occasionally get OSError: Permission denied when calling os.remove(). This can occur with a

can happen with various pieces of my system - almost anywhere I try to

Bad file names, i.e. filenames the OS considers illegal, will cause
functions in the os.path module to raise an error.
Example:

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
