Bill Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Ah, sorry. I was looking at the 2.6 documentation, not the 2.5 documentation. In 2.6 (which is what the new SSL code is for), documentation of socket.ssl has been removed entirely, along with the text that you cite, although the functionality from 2.5 socket.ssl is still provided for backwards compatibility. In 2.6, the ssl.SSLSocket type is a subclass of socket.socket, so you call "makefile" on it to get a file-like object for reading and writing.
If you'd like to submit a patch for 2.5 and 2.6, I think this is backwards-compatible enough to qualify as a fix, not a feature enhancement. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1291446> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
