But setting the timeout for _accept only_ is the "same" except one approach requires the check of a bool return, the other the handling of a socket.timeout exeption. My point is, if sockets already have nice and well defined timeout semantics, why not use them, or even improve them (perhaps with an optional timeout parameter to the accept call) rather than reimplement them with an explicit select.select() call? Anyway, I'll take another look at the problem and possibly submit a patch suggestion. Thanks.

I thought I had already explained why setting the timeout on the socket is not the same. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ 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/kristjan%40ccpgames.com _______________________________________________ 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
