New submission from Daniel Farley <danfarley93@gmail.com>: HTTPConnection's `timeout` argument is passed down to `socket.settimeout()` which supports `None` and puts the socket in blocking mode. This isn't documented on the `http.client` page. Otherwise it should not be allowed. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 359371 nosy: Daniel Farley, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: HTTPConnection.timeout None support type: behavior _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39224> _______________________________________
