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: Library (Lib) Group: Python 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Michael Meier (meiermic) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: IPv6 Interface naming/indexing functions Initial Comment: The Python socket module does not feature the functions declared in net/if.h even though they are essential to support IPv6 multicast to a reasonable extent. This patch adds a straightforward intertace to the three functions if_nameindex(), if_nametoindex() and if_indextoname(). I didn't add a testcase as I don't know what to test ;) The patch seems to work on Ubuntu 7.04. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1746656&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
