Hi. I'm having trouble flushing sys.stdout. I've written a small example
to illustrate my problem (see below). In short, I expect it to ping
"received hello", sleep for 5 seconds and then print "received world".
Instead I get nothing for 5 seconds and then both statements pop out at
once.
As you'll no doubt gather from the example, the problem I'm really trying
to solve is sending message back from one process to another via a pipe.
Changing the buffering option in the os.pipe() call doesn't have any
effect either.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
P.S. I've not found -u and PYTHONUNBUFFERE D to help me.
P.P.S. I'm running 2.3.3 on Linux, libc 2.2.5-11.5.
---cut---
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os, sys, time
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
sys.stdout.writ e("hello\n")
sys.stdout.flus h()
time.sleep(5)
sys.stdout.writ e("world\n")
else:
command = "python %s foo" % os.path.basenam e(sys.argv[0])
for line in os.popen(comman d, "r", 1):
print "received", line, 2 3841

You aren't actually having trouble flushing sys.stdout at all ...

Nope. The holdup is elsewhere.

Nope, they won't ...

The iteration over the pipe's contents is waiting until it sees the end
of the output before it yields anything. Try this:
import os, sys, time
if len(sys.argv) > 1:
sys.stdout.writ e("hello\n")
sys.stdout.flus h()
time.sleep(5)
sys.stdout.writ e("world\n")
else:
command = "python %s foo" % os.path.basenam e(sys.argv[0])
f = os.popen(comman d, "r", 1)
while 1:
line = f.readline()
if not line:
break
print "received", line,
You can probably find a tidier way to bundle this now you know what's up.

Steve

Genius. Thanks Steve, much appreciated. Now I can actually send our users
some feedback...

Hi,
My application has python embedded into it. I noticed that when I run any
python code the output is buffered and doesn't get flushed until my
application exits. To fix this I simply flush sys.stdout and sys.stderr
every once in while by using the following code:

PyObject *pyStdout =...

sys.stdout.flush() didn't seem to work.
