In response to bug 1706815 and seeing messy code to catch errors in network apps I've implemented most of the ideas in the bug and added a NetworkIOError exception (child of IOError). With this, socket.error would now inherit from NetworkIOError instead of being its own thing (the old one didn't even declare a parent!).
Complete patch attached to the bug. All unit tests pass. Documentation updates included. http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1706816&group_id=5470&atid=105470 Any thoughts? I'm happy with it and would like to commit it if folks agree. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
