Category: Documentation Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Serge Winitzki (winitzki) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: wrong documentation for popen2 Initial Comment: the python 2.3.3 library documentation for popen2 says: ( file:///usr/share/doc/python2.3/html/lib/module-popen2.html) popen2( cmd[, bufsize[, mode]]) Executes cmd as a sub-process. Returns the file objects (child_stdout, child_stdin). however, the actual behavior of python 2.3.3 is to return (child_stdin, child_stdout) - in the reverse order. I haven't checked with popen3 and popen4. thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Johannes Gijsbers (jlgijsbers) Date: 2005-01-09 02:08 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=469548 This has either been fixed in Python 2.4, or you're confusing popen2.popen2 with os.popen2, which does return the file objects in the order you describe. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=886619&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
