Terry J. Reedy added the comment: 'crash' means OS message rather than Python exiting with exception traceback and message.
Can you post a minimal reproducer? What OS? subprocess.Popen._get_handles is different on POSIX and windows, though both seem to call f.fileno() without try-except. All filenoes are initialized to -1, so it seems to me that either a. all accesses should be wrapped with try-except: pass, or b. subprocess doc should say that file-like objects must include a fileno method returning -1. I am puzzled though. The 2.7 doc for (builtin)file.fileno() says " Note File-like objects which do not have a real file descriptor should not provide this method! " " Rather than return -1 In must be that the subprocess test does not test with a 'file-like object without a file descriptor' ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy type: crash -> behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29989> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
