A port object is also typically a IReadWriteFileDescriptor or whatever the interface is, though perhaps not on IOCP, or some other hypothetical future reactor. startListening() does the opposite of stopListening(), it's completely different than stop/startReading - the former pair are permanent 'open or close the socket', vs. the latter 'unregister socket from event loop temporarily'.
In any case, as I said, doing stopReading() on a TCP port is not particularly useful, much better to handle it in factory and protocol level. _______________________________________________ Twisted-Python mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-python
