STINNER Victor added the comment: I would prefer to add something to get the type without SOCK_NONBLOCK nor SOCK_CLOEXEC. So new feature can only be added to Python 3.5. For older Python versions, you can to filter manually, which is difficult because you have yo check if SOCK_NONBLOCK and/or SOCK_CLOEXEC are available. You have the same issue in the C language.
Anyway, all sockets are now created with SOCK_CLOEXEC since Python 3.4 because of the PEP 446 (cloexec). We can add a new .sock_type attribute. Or .type could be an object with attributes like: type (int/enum), cloexec, nonblock, etc. Or simply a short helper method can be added. Ex: socket.get_socket_type(sock) or socket.get_socket_type(sock.type). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21327> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
