Nick Coghlan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Interesting, I hadn't noticed that addition to the platform module for 2.6.
A bit more verbose than sys.vm, but it would certainly do the trick :) In that case, I would suggest something along the lines of the following: vm = platform.python_implementation().lower() reference_vm = "cpython" def impl_detail(*vm_names): if vm_names: vm_names = [vm.lower() for vm in vm_names] else: vm_names = [reference_vm] if vm in vm_names: # Test the implementation detail else: # Skip this test _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4242> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
