Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: 3.x doesn't use FILE pointers for the main I/O library (it uses unbuffered I/O instead). It only uses them for importing, and a couple of extension modules such as bz2 and zipimport.
It might still mean, though, that a Python program opening many files might fail importing a module afterwards. ---------- nosy: +loewis, pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4609> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
