I should have added that you can write your own context manager for requests; it shouldn't be too bad. I'd expect the helper code to be something like:
######################################### class AutoClosable(object): def __init__(self, closable): self.closable = closable def __enter__(self): return self.closable def __exit__(self, type, value, traceback): self.closable.close() ## reraise exception if one occurred: return False ## Example usage: class Foo(object): def __init__(self, name): self.name = name def close(self): print("closing %s" % self.name) self.closed = True with AutoClosable(Foo('case 1')) as x: pass with AutoClosable(Foo('case 2')) as x: raise ValueError, "oops" ######################################### _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
