Reid Kleckner <[email protected]> added the comment:
I don't imagine this is going into 2.7.>0 at this point, so I ported the patch
to py3k. I also added support to check_output for the timeout parameter and
added docs for all of the methods/functions that now take a timeout in the
module.
The communicate docs include the pattern of:
try:
outs, errs = p.communicate(timeout=15)
except subprocess.TimeoutExpired:
p.kill()
outs, errs = p.communicate()
And check_output uses it.
