New submission from Ryan Kelly <r...@rfk.id.au>: The docs for HTTPConnection.set_tunnel(host,port) are ambiguous. They simply say "Set the host and the port for HTTP Connect Tunnelling". But should I specify the address of the server *through* which I want to tunnel, or the address of the *endpoint* of the tunnel?
Turns out it's the latter, but I just wasted an hour "debugging" thinking it was the former :-( Attached is a simple doc patch to try to clarify this issue. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: set_tunnel_doc.diff keywords: patch messages: 130396 nosy: docs@python, rfk priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: docs for HTTPConnection.set_tunnel are ambiguous versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21056/set_tunnel_doc.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11448> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
