Ah, and I was even the one that suggested the bind to 127.0.0.1 strategy for
the test :(
My buildbots run in linux-vserver virtual hosts, and they way they handle
localhost (127.0.0.1) is to alias it to the IP address assigned to the

I took the easy route and remove the test of the hostname all together. The
fact that the source port was used is sufficient indication that the bind call
was made.

Did this ever happen? It seems like overkill in the non-Python sort of
way to continue pointing people to over-riding classes and extending
objects when such a small patch adds so powerful and useful a
functionality to the library.

Since Gregory didn't update the ticket, it seems likely that it hasn't
happened yet. If you'd care to try the patch and report on your
results, that would help the process. We'll also need unit tests and
documentation updates, so patches
Greg greg.helli...@gmail.com added the comment:
Just looking at the indicated file in the 2.6.4 release tarball, it does
not seem that it would apply cleanly. The line numbers do not apply
properly anymore, though the edited lines themselves still appear to be
unaffected. Without context
Antoine Pitrou pit...@free.fr added the comment:
I'm not sure why this is needed in httplib. Isn't it a matter of
configuring the machine's routing tables properly?

For my own case, I have a machine with 50 IP addresses set and I need to
run a script to grab data that will randomly select one of those IP
addresses to use for its outgoing connection. That's something which
needs to be selected at the socket

You are correct that more than just httplib may need this; however, it
is a real need. Consider for example a machine that has multiple IPs on
the same network (perhaps there used to be two machines but the services
were consolidated onto

The patch files for Python 2.6 and a test file are in the attached tar
file. Both httplib.py and socket.py need to be patched now.

If you want the maximum chance for this to get applied, it would be best
to have one or a set of patch files in 'svn diff' format against trunk

patch, specifically section
Gregory P. Smith g...@krypto.org added the comment:
yes its a real need and yes we should support this in the standard
library. no i have not had time to look at it since my comment a 14
months ago.
Thanks for the updated patch Eldon!

This is useful but as its a feature we won't be able to add it until
2.7/3.1. Assigning to me to make sure it happens.
Until then, the approach I suggest is to subclass httplib.HTTPConnection
and HTTPSConnection to add your own variants

Sounds good. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help.

New submission from Eldon Ziegler [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I updated httplib.py, python 2.4, to be able to bind to a specific IP
address when connecting to a remote site.
conn = httplib.HTTPConnection('82.94.237.218', 80)
will connect to '82.94.237.218' using one of the local IP addresses. For
