Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment: btw, when using async io (poll, select, etc) I -think- your socket will see a read event when the server closes the connection (sends you a FIN or even a RST) at which point your sock.recv() when you've been told data was ready will return 0 bytes indicating that the server has closed the connection.
I like your MSG_PEEK hack here. I'll figure out if this or something else should go into (the giant mess that is) httplib. ---------- priority: -> normal _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3566> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
