New submission from Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr>: In 3.x, SSL sockets are created by dup()ing the original socket and then closing it. No attempt is made to conserve the socket's characteristics, such as the timeout and probably other flags.
I understand that it may be too late to change the design decision of using dup() and closing the original, but perhaps we should make a best effort to retain the original socket's characteristics. Or perhaps this limitation should be clearly documented (since especially 2.x works differently). ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 104129 nosy: giampaolo.rodola, janssen, pitrou priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: SSL sockets do not retain the parent socket's attributes versions: Python 3.1, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8524> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
