[issue13354] tcpserver should document non-threaded long-living connections

Bas Wijnen added the comment: Thank you for your fast response as well. I overlooked that paragraph indeed. It doesn't mention anything about avoiding a socket shutdown however. Keeping a list of requests isn't very useful if all the sockets in the list are closed. ;-) So I would indeed sug

Bas Wijnen added the comment: For example, I have some programs which are HTTP servers that implement WebSockets. For regular web page requests, it is acceptable if the connection is closed after the page is sent. But for a WebSocket it isn't: the whole point of that protocol is to allow the

Martin Panter added the comment: Bas: I think you need to provide more information. Are you talking about protocols like HTTP, where multiple high-level (HTTP-level) requests are made over a single low-level (socket-level) connection? Some example code might help. Overriding shutdown_request()

[issue13354] tcpserver should document non-threaded long-living connections

New submission from Bas Wijnen : http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/socketserver.html says: The solution is to create a separate process or thread to handle each request; the ForkingMixIn and ThreadingMixIn mix-in classes can be used to support asynchronous behaviour. There is another way, w
