Python Mechanize + GAEpython code

Question

I am aware of previous questions regarding mechanize + Google App Engine, What pure Python library should I use to scrape a website? and Mechanize and Google App Engine.

Answer 1

I have solved this problem, just change the code of mechanize._http.py, about line 43, from:

try:
    socket._fileobject("fake socket", close=True)
except TypeError:
    # python <= 2.4
    create_readline_wrapper = socket._fileobject
else:
    def create_readline_wrapper(fh):
        return socket._fileobject(fh, close=True)

to:

try:
    # fixed start -- fixed for gae
    class x:
        pass

    # the x should be an object, not a string,
    # This is the key
    socket._fileobject(x, close=True)
    # fixed ended
except TypeError:
    # python <= 2.4
    create_readline_wrapper = socket._fileobject
else:
    def create_readline_wrapper(fh):
        return socket._fileobject(fh, close=True)
