New submission from Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org>: telnetlib uses select.select. This limits it to being able to work when file descriptors are still below FD_SETSIZE (often 1024) meaning it can't be used in some large programs today.
It should use poll. (it is probably easy to fix this and the telnetlib EINTR issue1049450 at the same time) ---------- assignee: jackdied components: Library (Lib) messages: 158874 nosy: gregory.p.smith, jackdied priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: telnetlib uses select instead of poll - limited to FD_SETSIZE fds type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14635> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
