New submission from Gabriel Mesquita Cangussu:

The documentation of asyncio specifies that the methods connect_read_pipe and 
connect_write_pipe are available on Windows with the ProactorEventLoop. The 
documentation then says that those methods accept file-like objects on the pipe 
parameter. However, the methods doesn't seem to work with stdio or any disk 
file under Windows. The following example catches this problem:

import asyncio
import sys

class MyProtocol(asyncio.Protocol):
    def connection_made(self, transport):
        print('connection established')
        
    def data_received(self, data):
        print('received: {!r}'.format(data.decode()))
        
    def connection_lost(self, exc):
        print('lost connection')

if sys.platform.startswith('win32'):
    loop = asyncio.ProactorEventLoop()
else:
    loop = asyncio.SelectorEventLoop()
coro = loop.connect_read_pipe(MyProtocol, sys.stdin)
loop.run_until_complete(coro)
loop.run_forever()
loop.close()


This code when executed on Ubuntu have the desired behavior, but under Windows 
10 it gives OSError: [WinError 6] The handle is invalid. The complete output is 
this:

c:\Users\Gabriel\Documents\Python Scripts>python async_pipe.py
connection established
Fatal read error on pipe transport
protocol: <__main__.MyProtocol object at 0x000001970EB2FAC8>

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\Python35\lib\asyncio\proactor_events.py", line 195, in

    self._read_fut = self._loop._proactor.recv(self._sock, 4096)
  File "C:\Program Files\Python35\lib\asyncio\windows_events.py", line 425, in

    self._register_with_iocp(conn)

_register_with_iocp
    _overlapped.CreateIoCompletionPort(obj.fileno(), self._iocp, 0, 0)
OSError: [WinError 6] Identificador inválido

I think that the documentation should state that there is no support for disk 
files and stdio with the methods in question and also state what exactly they 
support (an example would be nice). And, of course, better support for watching 
file descriptors on Windows on future Python releases would be nice.

Thank you,
Gabriel
