"file object" and "file-like object" are the convention used in the docs: http://docs.python.org/dev/glossary.html#term-file-object That said, if the APIs also accept file descriptors, it must be mentioned. > i.e. have to unpack it for no reason. That doesn't seem much of a concern, does it? Perhaps there can be two separate methods, select() and select_with_data(), but that sounds a bit overkill. > 3) Concerning get_info(): right now the signature is: > get_info(): fileobj -> (events, data) > > Wouldn't it be better to just return the whole key instead [...] No opinion :-) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16853> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
