Mads Kiilerich <m...@kiilerich.com> added the comment: I think it would be confusing if getpeercert returned None both for valid connections without certificates and also for invalid connections. I would almost prefer the current behaviour (AttributeError) if just it was documented and there was a documented way to check if the connection actually was alive. Do you agree that checking .cipher() is the recommended way to do that in a way that is compatible with past and future 2.x versions?
I hope the proper fix will ensure that an exception always is raised if the ssl handshake fails - and that a successful wrap_socket means that the ssl negotiation did succeed with the given constraints. It might however only be feasible to fix that for 3.x. I filed Issue13724 for the create_socket documentation. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13721> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
