Add the two following functions to the socket module: def get_inheritable(sock): if os.name == 'nt': return os.get_handle_inheritable(sock.fileno()) else: return os.get_inheritable(sock.fileno()) def set_inheritable(sock, inheritable): if os.name == 'nt': os.set_handle_inheritable(sock.fileno(), inheritable) else: os.set_inheritable(sock.fileno(), inheritable) Usage: socket.get_inheritable(sock) and socket.set_inheritable(sock, True) > Or add 2 methods to the socket class? Add the two following methods to the socket class: def get_inheritable(self): if os.name == 'nt': return os.get_handle_inheritable(self.fileno()) else: return os.get_inheritable(self.fileno()) def set_inheritable(self, inheritable): if os.name == 'nt': os.set_handle_inheritable(self.fileno(), inheritable) else: os.set_inheritable(self.fileno(), inheritable) Usage: s.get_inheritable() and sock.set_inheritable(True) Victor _______________________________________________ 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
