socket.gethostname() in the check for a valid return.
Also clarified docs (official and docstring) that the value from gethostname()
is returned if gethostbyaddr() doesn't do the job.
a non-standard protocol and on a lower port than the tcp/udp entries,
which breaks the assumption that there will only be one service by a
given name on a given port when no protocol is specified.
Previous versions of this code have had other problems as a result of
different service definitions amongst common platforms. As this platform
has an extra, unexpected, service entry, I've special cased the platform
rather than re-order the list of services checked to highlight the pitfall.
and test_support.run_classtests() into run_unittest()
and use it wherever possible.
Also don't use "from test.test_support import ...", but
"from test import test_support" in a few spots.
From SF patch #662807.
- The socket module now provides the functions inet_pton and inet_ntop
for converting between string and packed representation of IP addresses.
See SF patch #658327.
This still needs a bit of work in the doc area, because it is not
available on all platforms (especially not on Windows).
least on OS/2 (see note on SF patch 555085 by A I MacIntyre) but
looks like the test *could* fail on any other platform too -- there's
no guarantee that recv() reads all data.
prints function and module names, which is more informative now that
we repeat some tests in slightly modified subclasses.
Add a test for read() until EOF.
Add test suites for line-buffered (bufsize==1) and a small custom
buffer size (bufsize==2).
Restructure testUnbufferedRead() somewhat to avoid a potentially
infinite loop.
and this broke a Zope "pipelining" test which read multiple responses
from the same connection (this attaches a new file object to the
socket for each response). Added a test for this too.
(I want to do some code cleanup too, but I thought I'd first fix
the problem with as little code as possible, and add a unit test
for this case. So that's what this checkin is about.)
and age of rampant computer breakins I imagine there are plenty of systems
with telnet disabled. Successful check of at least one getservbyname() call
is required for success
If the long is large enough, the return value will be a negative int.
In this case, calling the function a second time won't return the
original value passed in.
imports e.g. test_support must do so using an absolute package name
such as "import test.test_support" or "from test import test_support".
This also updates the README in Lib/test, and gets rid of the
duplicate data dirctory in Lib/test/data (replaced by
Lib/email/test/data).
Now Tim and Jack can have at it. :)
They still run as standalone scripts, but when used as part of the
regression test suite, they are effectively no-ops.
(This is done by renaming test_main to main.)
that retries the connect() call in timeout mode so it can be shared
between connect() and connect_ex(), and needs only a single #ifdef.
The test for this was doing funky stuff I don't approve of,
so I removed it in favor of a simpler test. This allowed me
to implement a simpler, "purer" form of the timeout retry code.
Hopefully that's enough (if you want to be fancy, use non-blocking
mode and decode the errors yourself, like before).
