Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Library Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Raise L. Sail (fullsail) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: fcntl.ioctl have a bit problem. Initial Comment: First, I write python program on Linux. The function ioctl of fcntl module, take a integer parameter as ioctl command. in python 2.3.x, if this command value is more than 0x80000000, interpreter will popup some warnning message. but in python 2.4.x, it raise a exception directly. My solution is writing one cutoms module in C. but this is so ugly. There are some ioctl command value are more than 0x80000000, I think we should not reject "negative" ioctl command. enjoy. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-08-23 13:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 I think this is fixed in CVS HEAD. Can you try that? As a workaround, you can probably pass ~int(~v&0xFFFFFFFF) to ioctl instead of v (which is very ugly, yes, but probably not as ugly as a C extension). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1262856&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
