Roy Smith <r...@panix.com> added the comment: This is kind of ugly. On the one hand, I'm all for adding a check in makefile() to catch it being called on a non-blocking socket.
On the other hand, you are correct that a user could change the mode leter. Even if we added checks for this in socket.setblocking(), there's plenty of ways to get around that; it's easy to grab a raw file descriptor and do whatever you want with it behind the library's back. On the third hand, maybe a check could be added to SocketIO.readinto() to verify that the socket was in blocking mode each time it was called? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7322> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
