Python：AttributeError：'module'对象没有属性'socketpair'

Question

I wanna try " socketpair " function in my "discovering and studying" python program language. Im creating socketpair with following command:

import socket

parent, child = socket.socketpair()

and then I get error: Python: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'socketpair'

Im working in eclipse, in windows. I suppouse socketpair working only in UNIX enviroment, but socket module should include socketpair anyway.

How should I fix it?

thanks

Regards

At the moment this is not available on Windows, but it is in development, as you can see in related bug .

You can find workaround over the net, like here: http://code.activestate.com/recipes/525487-extending-socketsocketpair-to-work-on-windows/
