String compare question

[Robert Dailey]

Hi,

Currently I have the following code:


ignored_dirs = (
    r".\boost\include"
    )

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Walk the directory tree rooted at 'source'
    for root, dirs, files in os.walk( source ):
        if root not in ignored_dirs:
            CopyFiles( root, files, ".dll" )
        else:
            print root


Specifically take a look at the if condition checking if a string is inside
of ignored_dirs. Of course this will only do substring searches, however I
want to perform an exact match on this string. Is there anyway of doing
this? Thanks.
