Bug description:
suppose I want to run a subprocess with piped stdin/stdout but let that process print to console using stderr (which is a common use pattern)
currently in Popen there's no way to override stdin=PIPE, stdout=PIPE but let stderr use default handle
if I have a child.py script:
import sys, time
try:
print('console message', file=sys.stderr)
except Exception as e:
open('CONOUT$', 'w').write(str(e))
while True:
time.sleep(1)
and parent.py script:
import subprocess
with subprocess.Popen(('python.exe', 'child.py'), stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, creationflags=subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE):
pass
then it works if parent script is run in a console. But if it is a GUI script (e.g. run via pythonw.exe) then child script attempting to print to stderr gets [Errno 22] Invalid argument
this happens because this line:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/067145177975eadd61a0c907d0d177f7b6a5a3de/Lib/subprocess.py#L1398
tries to inherit stderr, but it returns None in a GUI app, so then a fake Pipe is created and ultimately passed to CreateProcess as stderr instead of NULL handle.
Here's a hack which allows me to selectively pipe only stdin and stdout and leave stderr as default:
import subprocess
class HackedSTARTUPINFO(subprocess.STARTUPINFO):
def __setattr__(self, attr, value):
if attr == 'hStdError':
value = None
super().__setattr__(attr, value)
def copy(self):
return self
si = HackedSTARTUPINFO()
with subprocess.Popen(('python.exe', 'child.py'), stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, startupinfo=si, creationflags=subprocess.CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE):
pass
This way child.py can print to stderr even if run from a GUI script.
There should be a way to selectively set STARTUPINFO.hStdInput/hStdOutput/hStdError to None using Popen arguments.

研究方向
從 Lib/subprocess.py 中連結的第 1398 行附近開始,使用 pythonw.exe 和 CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE 在 Windows 上重現 parent.py/child.py 的情況。當 Popen 能夠對 stdin 和 stdout 進行管線傳輸,同時有選擇地將 stderr 保留為預設控制代碼時,即表示完成;即使 parent 是 GUI 指令碼也必須如此。
