Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: While it could be argued that it is 'obvious' that changing the stdin, stdout, stderr, and pid of a processes cannot work, I agree that a small addition would be good. In 17.1.2. Popen Objects, after "The following attributes are also available", insert " (do not try to change them)" before ':'.
Actually, it seems to me that the attributes should actually be read-only (in 3.2) if possible (via custom Popen.__setattr__), in which case the only doc change needed (for 3.2) would be insertion of 'read-only' before 'attributes'. Georg, if you know the id of the subprocess maintainer (if there is one now), could you add him to the nosy list for an opinion or comment? ---------- nosy: +tjreedy versions: +Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2 -Python 2.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3687> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
