   | Given that this is just a convenience function, it's that big of a deal that it's not implemented. What's more annoying is that it is listed at http://www.jython.org/docs/library/socket.html. |

   | jython is currently at version 2.5.
socket.create_connection was introduced in cpython 2.6, and will be introduced in jython 2.6.
It was introduced as more than a convenience function: it's real purpose was to centralise the creation of sockets for dependent libraries such as httplib, ftplib, telnetlib, etc.
Still, obviously some people use it directly, and that's ok. I'll have a look at introducing it in a point release of jython 2.5.
It's definitely a documentation bug that it appears in the jython 2.5 documentation. |

   | Fix checked in at http://hg.python.org/jython/rev/cc548bacc001
This is will be released in jython 2.5.3. |  |
