STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: printtest2.py displays directly "Processing.. " on Windows, but not on Linux. It looks like stdout is not buffered on Windows, which looks like a bug to bug :-) I think that it is safer to always call sys.stdout.flush() to ensure that your message is directly displayed. With Python 2, you can use -u flag (unbuffered output) to avoid the explicit flush, but this is very inefficient (slow).
Python 3 uses line buffers, even with python3 -u, for better performances. If you want to see directly "Processing.. ", as Python 2, call sys.stdout.flush(). It is not a regression, it is a choice to be efficient. ---------- nosy: +haypo resolution: -> invalid status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11633> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
