Hi,
I use subprocess to execute another program but need to suppress its stdout.
I can achieve it by using Popen(...,stdout=subprocess.PIPE,...) but
wonder where the all stdout actually goes. Is it buffered (to eventually
fill up)or just discarded?
Or there is a better solution ...
Thx, alf

it ends up in a pipe buffer, yes.

/dev/null is your friend:
Popen(..., stdout=open("/dev/null", "w"), stderr=subprocess.STDOUT, ...)

I am forced to use win32 :-( plus it needs to be platform independent ...

alright, os.devnull is your friend:
Popen(..., stdout=open(os.devnull, "w"), stderr=subprocess.STDOUT, ...)
