I know that returning an empty list changes the semantics: I just think that's better - or not as bad - than the current possibility of having any single piece of code possibly die upon EINTR. If you want to implement retry with timeout re-computation, I'm not the one to who must be convinced :-) (BTW, if we go this way, then time.sleep() should probably also be fixed to retry upon EINTR). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18885> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
