--------------------------------

             Summary: Python client should prefer select() to poll() if patched 
by eventlet
                 Key: QPID-5790
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5790
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Python Client
    Affects Versions: 0.28
            Reporter: Ken Giusti
            Assignee: Ken Giusti
             Fix For: Future


QPID-5588 avoids a limitation on the use of file descriptors > 1024 in value by 
using poll() instead of select() when poll is available.  However, the eventlet 
greenthreads library does not work with poll, only select.  Clients that use 
eventlet greenthreads will fail to operate properly with the qpid python client.

As the fix to QPID-5588 dynamically chooses either select or poll based on 
poll's availability, it should be possible to enhance this check to also 
determine if the select() method has been provided by greenthreads, and, if so, 
use select() instead of poll().  This would allow greenthreaded clients to work 
properly.
