Use a coroutine with asyncio.sleep() instead of call_later() to ensure that the
schedule call is cancelled.
Add also a unit test cancelling connect_pipe().
Improve stability of the proactor event loop, especially operations on
overlapped objects:
* Tulip issue 195: Don't call UnregisterWait() twice if a _WaitHandleFuture is
cancelled twice to fix a crash.
* IocpProactor.close(): cancel futures to cancel overlapped operations, instead
of cancelling directly overlapped operations. Future objects may not call
ov.cancel() if the future was cancelled or if the overlapped was already
cancelled. The cancel() method of the future may also catch exceptions. Log
also errors on cancellation.
* tests: rename "f" to "fut"
* Add a __repr__() method to IocpProactor
* Add a destructor to IocpProactor which closes it
* _OverlappedFuture.cancel() doesn't cancel the overlapped anymore if it is
done: if it is already cancelled or completed. Log also an error if the
cancellation failed.
* Add the address of the overlapped object in repr(_OverlappedFuture)
* _OverlappedFuture truncates the source traceback to hide the call to the
parent constructor (useless in debug).
* Add a new asyncio.subprocess module
* Add new create_subprocess_exec() and create_subprocess_shell() functions
* The new asyncio.subprocess.SubprocessStreamProtocol creates stream readers
for stdout and stderr and a stream writer for stdin.
* The new asyncio.subprocess.Process class offers an API close to the
subprocess.Popen class:
- pid, returncode, stdin, stdout and stderr attributes
- communicate(), wait(), send_signal(), terminate() and kill() methods
* Remove STDIN (0), STDOUT (1) and STDERR (2) constants from base_subprocess
and unix_events, to not be confused with the symbols with the same name of
subprocess and asyncio.subprocess modules
* _ProactorBasePipeTransport.get_write_buffer_size() now counts also the size
of the pending write
* _ProactorBaseWritePipeTransport._loop_writing() may now pause the protocol if
the write buffer size is greater than the high water mark (64 KB by default)
Major changes:
- StreamReader.readexactly() now raises an IncompleteReadError if the
end of stream is reached before we received enough bytes, instead of
returning less bytes than requested.
- Unit tests use the main asyncio module instead of submodules like events
- _UnixWritePipeTransport now also supports character devices, as
_UnixReadPipeTransport. Patch written by Jonathan Slenders.
- Export more symbols: BaseEventLoop, BaseProactorEventLoop,
BaseSelectorEventLoop, Queue and Queue sublasses, Empty, Full
