Python 3's io uses the CRT's low I/O (ioinfo struct) in binary mode. It appears that the buffers pipech, pipech2, and dbcsbuffer are only used in text mode. So it should be generally OK to call get_osfhandle and use Win32 directly, if that's ever required. Of course, as this patch demonstrates, an io opener (3.3+) can call open_osfhandle immediately after CreateFile, and nothing else changes. This could be added to io / _pyio in 3.5. Initially it could simply be a pure-Python function that uses _winapi and msvcrt. 3.6 could get a C implementation in _iomodule.c. ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15244> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
