#154 Module execution hangs when 4095 or more chars are output

[Anonymous]

I have a simple program that parses a file and outputs
the parsed text with print to default out.
When the output exceeds a certain limit no output is
visible in the output tab and the executed program
appears to hang.
When the program is subsequently killed the text output
becomes visible.
The upper limit is 4094. Beyond this, the program hangs.

The effect can be easily observed with this demo:

if __name__=="__main__":
print "x"*4095

will 'hang'. Changing 4095 to 4094 will work.

Yes, this is a painful new issue introduced when I switched
over from using popen3 to wxProcess.

The strangest thing is that I have a working example in
ProcessProgressDlg.py, but I just cannot get it to work
properly when running from the IDE :(

I will keep at this until it's fixed, more feedback hopefully soon.
