spresse1 added the comment: I'm actually a nix programmer by trade, so I'm pretty familiar with that behavior =p However, I'm also used to inheriting some way to refer to these fds, so that I can close them. Perhaps I've just missed somewhere a call to ask the process for a list of open fds? This would, to me, be an acceptable workaround - I could close all the fds I didn't wish to inherit.
Whats really bugging me is that it remains open and I can't fetch a reference. If I could do either of these, I'd be happy. Maybe this is more an issue with the semantics of multiprocessing? In that this behavior is perfectly reasonable with os.fork() but makes some difficulty here. Perhaps I really want to be implementing with os.fork(). Sigh, I was trying to save myself some effort... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18120> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
