[Python-Dev] IDLE timeout.

[Alessio Giovanni Baroni]

Hi to all,
I write on this list, because the error concerns the internals (I think).
The IDLE has a strange behaviour. Sometimes, randomly, the IDLE restart the
interpreter, with the follow exception on console:

----------------------------------------
Unhandled server exception!
Thread: SockThread
Client Address:  ('127.0.0.1', 8833)
Request:  <socket.socket object, fd=3, family=2, type=1, proto=0>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/socketserver.py", line 281, in
_handle_request_noblock
    self.process_request(request, client_address)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/socketserver.py", line 307, in
process_request
    self.finish_request(request, client_address)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/socketserver.py", line 320, in
finish_request
    self.RequestHandlerClass(request, client_address, self)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 503, in __init__
    socketserver.BaseRequestHandler.__init__(self, sock, addr, svr)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/socketserver.py", line 614, in __init__
    self.handle()
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/run.py", line 259, in handle
    rpc.RPCHandler.getresponse(self, myseq=None, wait=0.05)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 280, in
getresponse
    response = self._getresponse(myseq, wait)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 300, in
_getresponse
    response = self.pollresponse(myseq, wait)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 424, in
pollresponse
    message = self.pollmessage(wait)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 376, in
pollmessage
    packet = self.pollpacket(wait)
  File "/opt/python301/lib/python3.0/idlelib/rpc.py", line 347, in
pollpacket
    r, w, x = select.select([self.sock.fileno()], [], [], wait)
select.error: (4, 'Interrupted system call')

*** Unrecoverable, server exiting!
----------------------------------------

There isn't a specific reason; IDLE restart when I write some code, or when
I insert a return, or also when I do nothing.
If it is a bug, I don't know how to compile a test case, because the error
is randomly.

Thanks to all.
