Yes. > Also, I've read something about IOCP: is this a replacement for > WSAPoll, are there plans to get it merged at some point to python (and > if yes, would the select module be a proper home for this)? IOCP is not a replacement for WSAPoll (or select). Among other things it is not possible to use the current ssl module with IOCP (although Twisted manages to use IOCP with PyOpenSSL). Tulip should have IOCP support, so presumable when tulip is merged some support for IOCP will also be available in python. But I am not convinced that the select module is the proper home. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16853> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
