Under Unix, you can use resource.getrlimit(): (1024, 1024) But 1024 is a very common value, so you could simply loop 1024 times if it's not too slow. Besides, you definitely don't want to loop 2**31 times if 2**31 happens to be the current limit. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5179> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
