@orsenthil:
Consider the definition of httplib.HTTPConnection.__init__(), in Python 2.6.
def __init__(self, host, port=None, strict=None,
timeout=socket._GLOBAL_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT):
This could be replaced with:
def __init__(self, host, port=None, strict=None,
timeout=10):
or, perhaps better,
def __init__(self, host, port=None, strict=None,
timeout=httplib._HTTP_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT):
This timeout value is passed to the call in socket.create_connection, so I believe if it is overriden, it only applies to the relevant sockets and not to all sockets globally.
Note: I am not arguing here that this SHOULD be done - it would break existing applications, especially those that were written before Python 2.6 - merely that it COULD be done. |
