[Python-Dev] SocketServer and UserDict patches

[Python-Dev] SocketServer and UserDict patchesKa-Ping Yee ping@lfw.org

Hello all,

I'd like to call your attention to two small patches that i would
like to check in for the 2.1 RC.  They're small, but they correct
breakages that i think are worth fixing.

1.  UserDict.get(), .update(), and .setdefault()

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=413171&group_id=5470&atid=305470

    These three methods are currently implemented by calling the
    underlying object's .get(), .update(), or .setdefault() method.
    This is bad because a UserDict that overrides __getitem__ now
    will have an inconsistent or failing get() method.

    A glaring example of this is cgi.SvFormContentDict.  For such
    an object x, x['spam'] returns a single item but x.get('spam')
    returns a list of one item!

    Instead, these three methods should be implemented in terms of
    the object's own __getitem__, __setitem__, and has_key methods.
    This patch makes this change.


2.  SocketServer.StreamRequestHandler

https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=415111&group_id=5470&atid=305470

    The setup() method here duplicates the socket twice (once to
    make a read-only file, once to make a write-only file).  That
    yields three descriptors, but finish() closes only two.  This
    causes my browser to hang indefinitely waiting for the socket
    to close when SimpleHTTPServer is used to deliver a small page.

    This patch adds self.connection.close() to setup() so that
    there are just two descriptors to worry about.
