I was not aware of this undocumented method of the undocumented tkapp class. It is not available on Windows, and the FAQ should say so. From Modules/_tkinter.c: /* Tcl_CreateFileHandler() changed several times; these macros deal with the messiness. In Tcl 8.0 and later, it is not available on Windows (and on Unix, only because Jack added it back); when available on Windows, it only applies to sockets. */ Current _tkinter only supports 8.4+. The messiness still appears in the asyncio design. 'createfile' does not appear on the pydoc page for tkinter; directly using createfilehandle seems to be the only access. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka, terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22155> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
