No uos.dupterm in the Unix port?

[sarusso]

Hi all,

I compiled the Unix port (from git v1.11 tag) but it seems like there is no uos.dupterm, which I was hoping to use to remotely execute some code. This is what I get:

Code: Select all

MicroPython v1.11 on 2019-10-08; linux version
Use Ctrl-D to exit, Ctrl-E for paste mode
>>> import uos
>>> uos.dupterm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'dupterm'

Accordingly to the docs (http://docs.micropython.org/en/v1.11/li ... os.dupterm) and to some previous discussions (in particular, here: https://github.com/micropython/micropyt ... -415993868) it should be implemented...

What am I missing?

Thank you,
Stefano.

By default it is disabled, according to the last comment in the github link you mention you need to #define MICROPY_PY_OS_DUPTERM (2) in unix/mpconfigport.h (or pass that on the commandline when building)

[sarusso]

It works, thank you so much.

My understanding was that modifying/adding that macro was required in order to change dupterm's behaviour, not to enable dupterm itself.

Thanks again for the precious tip!

Best,
Stefano.

Yes indeed the macro does both, though that's only obvious when actually looking at the code.

You're welcome!
