Gregory P. Smith <g...@krypto.org> added the comment: Yeah, I'm trying to figure out what I was thinking then or if I was just plain wrong. :)
I was clearly wrong about a release being done in the child being the right thing to do (issue6643 proved that, the state held by a lock is not usable to another process on all platforms such that release even works). Part of it looks like I wanted a way to detect it was happening as any lock that is held during a fork indicates a _potential_ bug (the lock wasn't registered anywhere to be released before the fork) but not everything needs to care about that. ---------- versions: +Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6721> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
