Josiah Carlson <josiahcarl...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
handle_expt_event was removed in the test classes because it is no longer being used by any of the tests. None of them send OOB data (also known as priority data), so handle_expt_event should never be called. When I have a chance to compare your patch to mine (Monday, likely), I'll comment then. In terms of "handle_expt_event should handle the low level expt event called from select", what you don't seem understand is that and "expt event" is not an exception event, it's a "we got OOB data" event, and with the patches, it is called at *exactly* the time it should be: when there is OOB data. It used to be mistakenly called in the select loop whenever any sort of non-normal condition happened on the socket, which was a serious design flaw, and lead to significant misunderstanding about the purpose of the method. With the _exception() call as-is, it now behaves like the asyncore.poll2() function, which is the right thing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6550> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
