Antoine Pitrou added the comment: Amusingly, binding to the empty string produces something different:
>>> s = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX) >>> s.getsockname() b'' >>> s.bind(b'') >>> s.getsockname() b'\x000005d' while binding to the nul byte string produces the expected result: >>> s = socket.socket(socket.AF_UNIX) >>> s.bind(b'\x00') >>> s.getsockname() b'\x00' ---------- components: +Library (Lib) nosy: +pitrou stage: -> needs patch type: -> behavior versions: +Python 3.5, Python 3.6, Python 3.7 -Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30205> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
