I have been using the rpc module found in Demo/rpc a bit. It seems to work pretty well and I am able to get a 100% python (no C modules of my own) program to talk RPC to our C++ servers. Since python seems to include many other network protocols in the standard library and the rpc module seems to work fine with 2.2b1 (after a very small patch), perhaps it should be made a part of the standard library? It seems that the xdr module in Demo/rpc has already been put in. This patch makes the rpc module use xdrlib instead of xdr. It might be better to rename all of the xdr references insead of doing the trick I do here :). * rpc.py Sat Jul 20 20:09:54 1996 --- /home/eagle3/romberg/linux/HEAD/GFESuite/ifpISC/rpc.py Sun Oct 21 21:56:24 2001 *********** * 8,14 **** # XXX There is no provision for call timeout on TCP connections ! import xdr import socket import os --- 8,16 ---- # XXX There is no provision for call timeout on TCP connections ! #import xdr ! import xdrlib ! xdr = xdrlib import socket import os

I started looking at the bugs in chronological order in the hope that I can close some issues that don't make sense any more. Can I close this one? I am almost sure that this module is not going to be included in stdlib (I myself haven't used this module, though).

Go ahead.

Closing as there is no activity for long time and the request is unlikely to be accepted, anyway.
