holger krekel <holger.kre...@gmail.com> added the comment: I think the issue is unrelated to py.test - it just presents a use case as it wants to run 1000's of tests and capture stdout/stderr per each test function, cannot guess about a test's logging-usage yet wants to minimize memory/resource usage and close any temporary files it opens.
Anyway, a standalone minimal example involving the issue is this: import logging import StringIO stream = StringIO.StringIO() logging.basicConfig(stream=stream) stream.close() # to free memory/release resources At exit logging's shutdown() will try to flush/close resulting in an exception. Is it a problem to have the logging module be a bit more defensive and only try a flush/close if the stream isn't already closed? ---------- nosy: +hpk _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6333> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
