Vajrasky Kok added the comment: Fixing IO leak resource would fix this bug but leave another bug opened which I try to fix as well.
These statements with Python3 under Linux will always fail because we need to open /dev/tty file in binary mode (for whatever reason). fd = os.open('/dev/tty', os.O_RDWR|os.O_NOCTTY) tty = os.fdopen(fd, 'w+', 1) So I guess the correct fix would be to open /dev/tty in binary mode (and set buffering off) and go on from there. Of course, one can argue whether this bug should be separated from the original bug (resource warning). I am not sure either. Anyway, here is the patch that will work with stream StringIO and stdout. Thank you for Serhiy for pointing out my mistakes. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file30483/getpass_fix_works_with_stringio_and_stdout_stream.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18116> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
