Re: socket-module: different behaviour on windows / unix when atimeout is set

En Wed, 09 Jul 2008 15:02:56 -0300, Mirko Vogt <li***@nanl.dee scribi�:
it seems that the socket-module behaves differently on unix / windows
when a timeout is set.
[...]
Now I will change the code slightly - to be precise I set a timeout on
the socket:
# test.py

import socket
sock=socket.soc ket(socket.AF_I NET,socket.SOCK _STREAM)
sock.settimeout (3.0) # <-----
print 'trying to connect...'
sock.connect((' 127.0.0.1',9999 ))
print 'connected!'
# executed on linux

$ python test.py
trying to connect...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 5, in <module>
sock.connect((' 127.0.0.1',9999 ))
File "<string>", line 1, in connect
socket.error: (111, 'Connection refused')
$
# executed on windows
>C:\Python25\py thon.exe test.py
trying to connect...
connected!
Which Python version? Which Windows version? I've tried 2.3.4, 2.4.4,
2.5.1 and 3.0a4, all on WinXP SP2, and in all cases I got an exception
(details differ between versions). In no case I could make the connection
succeed when nobody was listening at port 9999, as expected.

My problem is not really python specific but as I do my implementation in python I hope someone here can help me. I have two programs that talk through a socket. Here is the code : <server> sock = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) sock.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1) sock.settimeout(5.0)

socket objects have a little quirk. If you try to receive 0 bytes on a blocking socket, they block. That is, if I call recv(0), it blocks (until some data arrives). I think that's wrong, but I don't want to argue that. I would like to create a subclass of socket that fixes the problem. Ideally, something like: class new_socket(socket): def recv( self, bufsize, flags=0 ):

Hi, I have a synchronous socket server which my app uses to read data from clients. To test this I have a simulated client that sends 100 byte packets. I have set up the socket server so that its buffer is bigger than this. I did this expecting the data to be read in one pass.

My app has an asynchronous socket server. It will have 20 clients connected to the server. Each client sends data every 500 millisecondsThe Connections once established will not be closed unless there is a problem with the connection. I need to know which client has sent the incoming data as each client has its own buffer on my "server" app. I am using the standard asynch socket code from MSDN to listen for connections and they...

Hello, Could someone please explain why the Socket.Send is slow to send to the same process it sending from. Eg. Process1 calls Socket.Send which sends to the same IP address and port, the receiver is running within Process1. If I move the receiver into Process2 then its fast. Please can someone explain.

Hi there, since the socket.socket.family attribute has been introduced only in Python 2.5 and I need to have my application to be backward compatible with Python 2.3 and 2.4 I'd like to know how could I determine the family of a socket.socket instance which may be AF_INET or AF_INET6. Is there some kind of getsockopt() directive I could use? For now I've been able to determine the family by using: # self.socket = a connected...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
