Why doesn't this asyncore.dispatcher.handle_read() get called?

Show all headers | View raw

Hi,

I'm writing and testing an asyncore-based server. Unfortunately, it
doesn't seem to work. The code below is based on the official docs and
examples, and starts a listening and sending dispatcher, where the
sending dispatcher connects and sends a message to the listener - yet
Handler.handle_read() never gets called, and I'm not sure why. Any
ideas?

Thanks, D.


import asyncore, socket, sys

COMM_PORT = 9345

class Handler(asyncore.dispatcher):
    def handle_read(self):
        print 'This never prints'

class Listener(asyncore.dispatcher):
    def __init__(self, port=COMM_PORT):
        asyncore.dispatcher.__init__(self)
        self.create_socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        self.set_reuse_addr()
        self.bind(('', port))
        self.listen(5)

    def handle_accept(self):
        client, addr = self.accept()
        print 'This prints.'
        return Handler(client)

class Sender(asyncore.dispatcher):
    def __init__(self, host):
        asyncore.dispatcher.__init__(self)
        self.create_socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
        self.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, socket.SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
        self.connect( (host, COMM_PORT) )
        self.buffer = 'Msg\r\n'

    def handle_connect(self):
        pass

    def writable(self):
        return len(self.buffer) > 0

    def handle_write(self):
        sent = self.send(self.buffer)
        self.buffer = self.buffer[sent:]

def test_communication():
    from multiprocessing import Process
    def listener():
        l = Listener()
        asyncore.loop(timeout=10, count=1)
    lis = Process(target=listener)
    lis.start()
    def sender():
        s = Sender('localhost')
        asyncore.loop(timeout=10, count=1)
    sen = Process(target=sender)
    sen.start()
    lis.join()

test_communication()
