Under Unix, you'd get a EADDRINUSE with a Unix domain socket. I don't know much about Windows, but here's what CreateNamedPipe doc says: """ FILE_FLAG_FIRST_PIPE_INSTANCE 0x00080000 If you attempt to create multiple instances of a pipe with this flag, creation of the first instance succeeds, but creation of the next instance fails with ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED. Windows 2000: This flag is not supported until Windows 2000 SP2 and Windows XP. """ So it seems that we should probably pass FILE_FLAG_FIRST_PIPE_INSTANCE under Windows. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8184> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
