Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Sven Berkvens-Matthijsse (svenberkvens) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Patch to support lots of file descriptors Initial Comment: Off-the-shelf Python on FreeBSD (and probably other OS'es as well) has a limit on the number of file descriptors that select can use. This is limited by the size of the fdset structures. On FreeBSD, and probably in many OS'es, a user can set the size of the fdset structures if he defines FD_SETSIZE before he includes sys/types.h. My patch sets the FD_SETSIZE to a substantial number. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2006-02-27 22:54 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 That patch is wrong: you should only change the value of FD_SETSIZE on systems where this actually works. Unfortunately, I cannot think of a method to determine this reliably. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1434657&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
