Steve Smith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Hi Jesse,
The use-case I had is mind is enabling asyncronous (i.e. select() style) notification of data being available on the queue, which is more elegant (and efficient) than polling with get(). Example code showing how this works with GTK is available here: http://haltcondition.net/?p=2319 I understand wanting to keep the API simple, however the underlying posix-level file-descriptors for pipes and connections are already exposed via fileno(); the actual API change would just be a matter of changing '_reader' and '_writer' to 'reader' and 'writer' (implicitly guaranteeing their consistency). Would it help if I attached a patch showing the proposed change to the module? I realise the API is frozen now but it would be nice to have this further down the line. _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3831> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
