asyncore python hangs | 易学教程

问题

I try to do simple async http client with asyncore: This code works fine and output is (fast enought):

www.gmail.com  :  recv http code:  301
www.yandex.ru  :  recv http code:  200
www.python.org  :  recv http code:  200
www.google.ru  :  recv http code:  200
www.gravatar.com  :  recv http code:  302
www.com.com  :  recv http code:  302
www.yahoo.com  :  recv http code:  302
www.bom.com  :  recv http code:  301

But than i uncomment line with not exist host:

#c = AsyncHTTP('http://www.no-such-host.ru') #!this line breaks execution!

The execution breaks, code hangs for some time, output part of data and hangs with no last data output:

connection error: [Errno -5] No address associated with hostname
www.gmail.com  :  recv http code:  301
www.yandex.ru  :  recv http code:  200
www.yahoo.com  :  recv http code:  302
www.com.com  :  recv http code:  302
www.bom.com  :  recv http code:  301
www.gravatar.com  :  recv http code:  302

... some hosts are lost here and long delay at start.

Why this happen and how to fix this?

asyncore.loop()

回答1:

You invoke a blocking name-resolution when you do self.connect((host, port)). Combined with your local DNS configuration, this is why your program has a long delay at startup.

An alternative to asyncore and figuring out how to do non-blocking name resolution yourself, you might think about using Twisted. Twisted's TCP connection setup API (mainly reactor.connectTCP or one of the APIs built on top of it) does not block. So a naive use of it will remain properly asynchronous.
