Ronald Oussoren added the comment: Mark: if you know Python you can answer that question yourself by reading the code of the subprocess and os modules.
>From a fairly short glance at the code I'd say that _wrap_close is not >obsolete. It is a wrapper about a file object for the stdout or stdin stream >of a Popen object (depending on the last argument of os.popen), and when >_wrap_close.close is called it closes the wrapped stream, then waits for the >subprocess to die and returns a *transformation* of the exitcode attribute. If my interpretation of the _wrap_close is correct this issue can be closed as invalid (the code cannot be cleaned up without changing functionality) ---------- nosy: +ronaldoussoren versions: +Python 3.4 -Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11965> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
