As far as I can tell, the asyncore.py, asynchat.py, and updated test_asyncore.py are good. I have been using earlier variants in my own projects (prior to their updating to pass the test suite) for quite a few months now. The updated modules provide better performance, features, and support for real-world async socket servers, never mind fixing more than a half dozen outstanding bugs. - Josiah On Sun, Mar 2, 2008 at 3:19 PM, Giampaolo Rodola' <gnewsg@gmail.com> wrote:
I've discussed a lot with Josiah via e-mail and I provided an updated version of the patch proposed in bug #1736190 including a fix for the two issues raised by me in the bug report. The update has been needed also because the original patch has been out-dated by some commits after r53734 involving the test suite and the documentation, which I both took off this patch. I also re-added simple_producer and fifo classes in asynchat.py since it seems they are needed for passing tests.
The test suite has passed on Windows XP using Python 2.6 alpha 1. I have also successfully run the test suite of a project of mine based on asynchat which includes over 40 tests.
