Nick Coghlan added the comment: Because that's the way enums work (http://docs.python.org/dev/library/enum):
>>> import socket >>> list(socket.SocketType) [<SocketType.SOCK_DGRAM: 2>, <SocketType.SOCK_SEQPACKET: 5>, <SocketType.SOCK_NONBLOCK: 2048>, <SocketType.SOCK_CLOEXEC: 524288>, <SocketType.SOCK_RDM: 4>, <SocketType.SOCK_STREAM: 1>, <SocketType.SOCK_RAW: 3>] >>> list(socket.AddressFamily) [<AddressFamily.AF_NETLINK: 16>, <AddressFamily.AF_CAN: 29>, <AddressFamily.AF_WANPIPE: 25>, <AddressFamily.AF_UNSPEC: 0>, <AddressFamily.AF_KEY: 15>, <AddressFamily.AF_PPPOX: 24>, <AddressFamily.AF_IPX: 4>, <AddressFamily.AF_UNIX: 1>, <AddressFamily.AF_IRDA: 23>, <AddressFamily.AF_SECURITY: 14>, <AddressFamily.AF_PACKET: 17>, <AddressFamily.AF_AX25: 3>, <AddressFamily.AF_APPLETALK: 5>, <AddressFamily.AF_NETROM: 6>, <AddressFamily.AF_ATMPVC: 8>, <AddressFamily.AF_SNA: 22>, <AddressFamily.AF_INET6: 10>, <AddressFamily.AF_TIPC: 30>, <AddressFamily.AF_RDS: 21>, <AddressFamily.AF_NETBEUI: 13>, <AddressFamily.AF_INET: 2>, <AddressFamily.AF_X25: 9>, <AddressFamily.AF_ECONET: 19>, <AddressFamily.AF_LLC: 26>, <AddressFamily.AF_ROSE: 11>, <AddressFamily.AF_BRIDGE: 7>, <AddressFamily.AF_ASH: 18>, <AddressFamily.AF_ATMSVC: 20>] Marking as a docs issue, since the fact that these are now enums should be covered in the socket module docs. ---------- assignee: -> docs@python components: +Documentation nosy: +docs@python, ethan.furman, ncoghlan stage: -> needs patch title: socket.SocketType is different in Python 3.4 -> Missing docs for SocketType and AddressFamily in socket module type: -> enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
