New submission from Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya <jyotir...@jyotirmoy.net>:
The documentation for urlopen says that it raises URLError on error. But there exist error conditions such as a socket timeout or a bad HTTP status line under which the exception from the underlying library leaks through urllib, thus breaking the promise in the documentation. I am attaching a test program that demonstrates this bug. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: test_urllib_except.py messages: 150849 nosy: jmoy, orsenthil priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: urllib.request.urlopen leaks exceptions from socket and httplib.client versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24172/test_urllib_except.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13736> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
