New submission from Sverrir Berg <s...@keilir.com>:
Reading a file that is at eof causes the file reading to halt indefinitely. 1) open() a file and read() everything from it. 2) call read() a second time - reading nothing (this causes the issue). 3) append to the file (using another file handle or manually). 4) try to read it again - read() always returns nothing. Attached is a a test causing this - works correctly on Ubuntu 2.7.12/3.5.2, macos 3.7.0, macos PyPy 5.10.0 but fails on macos 2.7.10/2.7.15(brew) I assume the expected behaviour is the same as on the other versions where you can continue to read from the file when it has been appended to? ---------- components: IO files: readwrite.py messages: 323365 nosy: sverrirab priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: File reading gets stuck if you read at eof on macos type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file47739/readwrite.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34371> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
