No, they can't. "Connecting" a UDP socket doesn't established a duplex connection like in TCP: it's just a shortand for not having to repeat the destination address upon every sendto()/sendmsg(). > FYI, the FreeBSD (and OpenBSD) shutdown manpages anticipate calling shutdown > on DGRAM sockets. And the Linux connect manpage discusses connecting DGRAM > sockets. And since shutdown() is designed for duplex connection, it doesn't really make much sense. It might very well work when you passe SHUT_RD because it can be interpreted as triggering an EOF, but I wouldn't rely on this. > Here is the updated Python code.

It's really not a bug at all, but if you want to report this upstream, have fun :-). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19530> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
