Summary: os.close(3) raises OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
Initial Comment:
os.close(3) raises OSError: Bad file descriptor on
FreeBSD 5.1, with both Python 2.2.2(_2) and 2.3(_1).
Python 2.3 on Gentoo Linux 1.4 is not affected.
Interestingly, if you call os.fstat(3) first, a
subsequent call to os.close(3) succeeds.
And yes, you do need to set up fd #3.
Here is a demonstration (on FreeBSD):
[syrah at ripple filter]$ cat test.py
import os
os.close (3)
[syrah at ripple filter]$ python test.py 3> file
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 2, in ?
os.close (3)
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor
[syrah at ripple filter]$ cat test2.py
import os
os.fstat (3)
os.close (3)
[syrah at ripple filter]$ python test2.py 3> file
[syrah at ripple filter]$ (success!)
