New submission from Christian Heimes: The subprocess docs need a warning that code like
p = subprocess.Popen(..., stdout=STDOUT) p.wait() p.stdout.read() can block indefinitely if the program fills the stdout buffer. It needs an example how to do it right but I don't know the best way to solve the problem. ---------- components: Documentation messages: 58514 nosy: tiran priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Doc: subprocess wait() may lead to dead lock versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.0 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1606> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
