New submission from Giampaolo Rodola' <g.rod...@gmail.com>: As of now socket.getaddrinfo() only supports positional arguments, so that if I want to, say, specify "flags" argument I'm forced to specify "0" for other missing arguments:
>>> socket.getaddrinfo("www.python.org", 0, 0, 0, socket.SOL_TCP) [(2, 1, 6, '', ('82.94.164.162', 0)), (10, 1, 6, '', ('2001:888:2000:d::a2', 0, 0, 0))] >>> >>> socket.getaddrinfo("www.python.org", flags=socket.SOL_TCP) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: getaddrinfo() takes no keyword arguments >>> ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 106817 nosy: exarkun, giampaolo.rodola, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: socket.getaddrinfo() should support keyword arguments versions: Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8866> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
