and 'type' arguments. This improves x-platform compatibility (e.g., on
Unix systems socket() already supported these default arguments).
No need to do anything here for 2.3 -- it already fixed this glitch in a
different way.
of the socket wrapper __del__ method. It isn't needed, and it prevents
cyclic structures containing socket objects (primarily on Windows, where
the wrapper is used) from getting garbage-collected. People running
ZEO tests in Zope under Windows are acutely aware of this, as the
test driver prints an ever-growing gc.garbage list after each test.
This way, when a socket object is deleted after the socket module has
already been zapped by module shutdown, we don't get annoying warnings
about exceptions in __del__ methods.
# 409287, ssl fix when using _socketobject, by Robin Dunn.
I took the opportunity to improve the way it deals with reload(socket)
for the socket function as well.
also modified check_all function to suppress all warnings since they aren't
relevant to what this test is doing (allows quiet checking of regsub, for
instance)
socket.py is used for all platforms, and it defines the additional
classes and alternate socket() function for Windows and BeOS systems.
The plat-*/socket.py files are no longer needed, since there is a
shared socket.py.
make_fqdn() is provided, but I decided to call it getfqdn() to be
consistent with the other names in the socket module. Since it is
really a "get" operation and does not create a new name, this is
the right name to give it.
Move the docstring here from the _socket module.
