Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. >Category: Python Library >Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Mark Diekhans (diekhans) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: add ability to specify name to os.fdopen Initial Comment: Please add an optional argument to os.fdopen() to specify the name field in the resulting file object. This would allow for a more useful name than: <open file '<fdopen>'...> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Collin Winter (collinwinter) Date: 2007-03-08 20:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1344176 Originator: NO Changing this to a "feature request", since it's certainly not a bug. I can see both sides of this; on the one hand, <fdopen> isn't the most descriptive string and doesn't give you an idea where it came from; on the other hand, you lose the distinction between files opened by filename and those by file descriptor. If the purpose is to distinguish between fdopen()'d files, what if fdopen() was changed so that the filename matched <fdopen \d+>, where \d+ is the file descriptor passed to fdopen()? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=355470&aid=1625576&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
