Hi Ani,

just a simple question: Are you sure, that you imported the modified socket module and not the original module from the distribution?

HTH,

Gerald

Hi python devs :

As a part of exploring an idea, I am trying to add a new method to the python socket object. Here's what I have been trying to do (the patch may be whitespace damaged so please bear with me) :

How do I export this new socket method? any help/pointer will be greatly appreciated. cheers, ani -- Ani
