How to prevent python pylint complaining about socket class sendall method

Question

I have a bit of code using a simple tcp socket setup to test something. We run pylint --errors-only on our python files, generally as a way to validate all our code

Answer 1

using the trick defined in http://www.logilab.org/blogentry/78354, we could start adding to pylint a generic astng plugin that would help him to understand such things from the stdlib (there is also various tickets/comments about hashlib in the tracker).

That would be a great improvment indeed. Any volunteer ? :)

Beside this, I don't think there is other options than disabling the message.
