New submission from Martin Panter: The only documentation on “createfilehandle” and friends that I can find looks like it needs updating:
https://docs.python.org/release/3.4.0/faq/gui.html#can-i-have-tk-events-handled-while-waiting-for-i-o I have been using the equivalent of this instead, for both Python 2 and 3: import tkinter widget = tkinter.Tk() widget.tk.createfilehandler(file, tkinter.READABLE | tkinter.WRITABLE, callback) ... widget.tk.deletefilehandler(file) However I have no idea if this is a supported, proper way, if one even still exists. The old way was removed by Issue 3638. BTW, there is a link to release/3.4.1 documentation but that returned a 404 error for me, so I linked to the 3.4.0 doc instead. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, Tkinter messages: 224922 nosy: docs@python, vadmium priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Out of date code example for tkinter's createfilehandle versions: Python 3.4, Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22155> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
