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: Modules Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 3 Private: No Submitted By: Heiko Wundram (hwundram) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) >Summary: sendmsg() and recvmsg() for C socket module Initial Comment: The following tar.bz2 contains a feature enhancement proposal for the socket module to create wrappings of the recvmsg and sendmsg primitives. These are sometimes useful, especially when dealing with ancillary messages, such as communicating the process, user and group id of a remote process to a server for proper identification. These functions have so far been available in a separate module (python-eunuchs from the twisted project), but as they are standard POSIX and have been available on *BSD, AIX, Linux and several other OSs for some time they should be integrated into the core socket module. The attached file contains patches for configure.in the socket module, socket.py and pyconfig.h.in. I've yet to write a test-suite, and the documentation could use some reworking. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: TH (therve) Date: 2007-03-06 14:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1038797 Originator: NO That's really great, it's a shame this patch didn't get much interest. Do you feel like adding test to this, it would probably psuh for its inclusion ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1194378&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
