Jean-Paul Calderone <exar...@divmod.com> added the comment: Solaris 10 introduced "The Event Completion Framework". I am not particularly familiar with Solaris, so I couldn't say whether it would be better to target this or the older /dev/poll. Some documentation suggests that "The Event Completion Framework" is somewhat preferred:
http://developers.sun.com/solaris/articles/event_completion.html It suggests that /dev/poll is not as performant, but I'm not sure I believe it. One feature which it does seem to have which puts it ahead of /dev/poll is the support of various non-fd event sources (eg, timers). ---------- nosy: +exarkun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6397> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
