Category: Windows Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: davids (davidschein) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: GetStdHandle in interactive GUI Initial Comment: Using the suprocess module from with IDLE or PyWindows, it appears that calls GetStdHandle (STD_<???>_HANDLE) returns None, which causes an error. (All appears fine on Linux, the standard Python command-line, and ipython.) For example: >>> import subprocess >>> p = subprocess.Popen("dir", stdout=subprocess.PIPE) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#49>", line 1, in -toplevel- p = subprocess.Popen("dir", stdout=subprocess.PIPE) File "C:\Python24\lib\subprocess.py", line 545, in __init__ (p2cread, p2cwrite, File "C:\Python24\lib\subprocess.py", line 605, in _get_handles p2cread = self._make_inheritable(p2cread) File "C:\Python24\lib\subprocess.py", line 646, in _make_inheritable DUPLICATE_SAME_ACCESS) TypeError: an integer is required The error originates in the mswindows implementation of _get_handles. You need to set one of stdin, stdout, or strerr because the first line in the method is: if stdin == None and stdout == None and stderr == None: ...return (None, None, None, None, None, None) I added "if not handle: return GetCurrentProcess()" to _make_inheritable() as below and it worked. Of course, I really do not know what is going on, so I am letting go now... def _make_inheritable(self, handle): ..."""Return a duplicate of handle, which is inheritable""" ...if not handle: return GetCurrentProcess() ...return DuplicateHandle(GetCurrentProcess(), handle, ....................................GetCurrentProcess(), 0, 1, ....................................DUPLICATE_SAME_ACCESS) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1124861&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
