In the doc page for the fcntl module, the example below is given. This seems like an error, or at least very misleading, as the normal usage is to get the flags (F_GETFL), set or unset the bits you want to change, then set the flags (F_SETFL). A reader might think that the example below merely sets O_NDELAY, but it also stomps all of the other bits to zero.
If someone can confirm my thinking, this ought to be changed. import struct, fcntl, os f = open(...) rv = fcntl.fcntl(f, fcntl.F_SETFL, os.O_NDELAY) _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
