typo in os.popen4 documentation #40646
Comments
on the page: http://www.python.org/doc/2.3.4/lib/module-popen2.html it lists os.popen4 return as: Returns the file objects (child_stdout_and_stderr, child_stdin) in practice it would appear to be (Solaris): Returns the file objects (child_stdin,child_stdout_and_stderr) |
Logged In: YES You (understandably) confused two nearly identical but >>> from os import popen4
>>> popen4
<built-in function popen4>
>>> popen2.popen4
<function popen4 at 0x00898768> Module-popen2.html talks about popen2.popen4 and not Module popen2 has 3 functions popen2/3/4 which The os module also has functions of the same name but Why ther reversal? No idea. The same hint/warning currently does NOT appear in the Suggestion to doc fixer: in Lib Ref 6.8 popen2, end of 4th |
Logged In: YES I've added a note to the popen2 docs about this. |
