Ronald Oussoren added the comment: How can you work around it in os.read, without knowing anything about what the file descriptor represents? Just triggering on getting on EINVAL error when calling read might trigger other problems and might even be a valid result for some file descriptors (for example for custom file systems or device files).
And what kind of workaround do you propose? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15896> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
