Good day, everyone:
Continuing my effort to learn Python and Twisted, I need to create several
Telnet clients and somehow send two arguments to each and receive data from
each.
I tried the same pattern that I used with the Telnet server and created a
Factory, actually a ReconnectingClientFactory. It doesn't work. My source
and the error (no attribute 'factory') are below.
Do the "conch" protocols not support a factory? Is there an alternative
that provides a Telnet client with a lineReceived method?
What am I doing wrong? :-) I suppose I could pass arguments to
ClusterClient by overriding __init__, but that seems inelegant.
Thanks for your help.
