Does it even really matter? serve_forever is never being called by the tests, and therefore the port doesn't really matter at all. In run_fake_socket we can see:<div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; "><pre style="word-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; ">
server = webserve_nb.NonblockingServer('', hello_app)
done, data = server.handle_connection(sock)</pre><pre style="word-wrap: break-word; white-space: pre-wrap; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: arial; white-space: normal; font-size: small; "><div>He's not doing anything over any sort of a network in the tests, but rather creating fake sockets which emulate what a real socket would do.

I am a little stumped as to why the Blocking server is instantiated in the hw7 tests with<br>
<br>
server = webserve.Server(8000, app)<br>
<br>
but the Non-blocking server is instantiated with<br>
<br>
server = webserve_nb.NonblockingServer('', hello_app)<br>
<br>
Notice the first argument is an integer in the former and a string in the latter. Is it just me or am I missing something? How do we deal with this (for non-blocking) since the port should be dynamically passed in upon instantiation from a command line argument?<br>
<br>
My goal is to subclass the Blocking server and only to override its __init__() and serve_forever() methods. Any ideas?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
