[wingide-users] BUG? Introspection fails on socket module

[Phyo Arkar]

Dear Stephan;

Thank you for your quick response.I  had read in wingide's help that using
*.pi files , it can help introspection . so i try to include the directory -


~/.wingide3/pi-cache/2.5/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload

but still it dosent help.

When i try to look into
~/.wingide3/pi-cache/2.5/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload/_socket.pi

it have all the members that i want to call : eg .

  setsockopt(level, optname, value) -- set socket options
  def setsockopt(self, level, option, value):
    """ setsockopt(lev    """ setsockopt(level, option, value)

    Set a socket option.  See the Unix manual for level and option.
    The value argument can either be an integer or a string. """

    pass

  def bind(self, address):
    """ bind(address)

    Bind the socket to a local address.  For IP sockets, the address is a
    pair (host, port); the host must refer to the local host. For raw packet
    sockets the address is a tuple (ifname, proto [,pkttype [,hatype]]) """

    pass


But it dosen't work  in wingide . Is there anyway to force load _socket.pi
for import socket ?

I had tried to do it from helpers by doing from socket.socket import _socket
but it dont help.
