Are you aware that recv() will not always return the amount of bytes
asked for?
(send() is similar; it doesn't guarantee that the full buffer you pass to
it will be
sent at once)
I suggest reading
this:http://www.amk.ca/python/howto/sockets/sockets.html
--irmen
So every time I use I want to send some thing, I must use
totalsent = 0
while sent < len(data):
sent = sock.send(data[totalsent:])
totalsent += sent
instead of a simple sock.send(data)? That's kind of nasty. Also, is it
better then to use sockets as file objects? Maybe unbuffered?
I think you meant:
while totalsent < len(data):
Python also has the sendall() function.
