New submission from Zackery Spytz <zsp...@gmail.com>:
In PR 13739, Eryk Sun mentioned that the Windows implementation of os.dup() returns an inheritable fd when handling a character file. A comment in _Py_dup() makes it seem as though this is due to a belief that handles for character files cannot be made non-inheritable (which is wrong). ---------- components: Extension Modules, Windows messages: 345494 nosy: ZackerySpytz, paul.moore, steve.dower, tim.golden, zach.ware priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: os.dup() creates an inheritable fd when handling a character file on Windows type: behavior versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8, Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37267> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
