Hi All, There appears to be a big difference between what the pygi-docs [1] documentation says how these should word compared to how they actually work. Basically as I see it, it works more like the old pygobject version [2], actually exactly like that. For example it return 4 values [3] while the current docs follow the C api and returns 2 [4].
This confused the hell out of me until I looked for some examples on the internet. I found in the GLib override that g_spawn_async is reassigned with gi._gi._glib.spawn_async which is my guess the reason it is t is different. Is that a know issue with the docs? ~infirit [1] https://lazka.github.io/pgi-docs/#GLib-2.0/functions.html#GLib.spawn_async [2] https://developer.gnome.org/pygobject/stable/glib-functions.html#function-glib--spawn-async [3] a 4-tuple containing the child's process id and the stdin, stdout and stderr file descriptor integers. [4] True on success, False if error is set and child_pid [5] https://git.gnome.org/browse/pygobject/tree/gi/overrides/GLib.py?h=pygobject-3-20#n41 _______________________________________________ python-hackers-list mailing list python-hackers-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/python-hackers-list
