* | Add port net/py-timeoutsocket: | sat | 2007-04-23 | 4 | -0/+36 |
timeoutsocket enables a timeout mechanism on all TCP connections. It does this by inserting a shim into the socket module. After this module has been imported, all socket creation goes through this shim. As a result, every TCP connection will support a timeout. The beauty of this method is that it immediately and transparently enables the entire python library to support timeouts on TCP sockets.
