I don't really like the idea of exposing the FD duplication to the user, because: - it's an implementation detail - it doesn't reflect any argument of the POSIX mmap version - it should False by default I really think that application code expecting to be able to resize the mmap after closing the FD is broken, but I'm also a really strong advocate of backward compatibility... I don't see any satisfying solution. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10897> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
