sbt <shibt...@gmail.com> added the comment: mp_queue_pickle_in_main_thread.patch (against the default branch) fixes the problem by doing the pickling in Queue.put(). It is version of a patch for Issue 8037 (although I believe the behaviour complained about in Issue 8037 is not an actual bug).
The patch also has the advantage of ensuring that weakref callbacks and __del__ methods for objects put in the queue will not be run in the background thread. (Bytes objects have trivial destructors.) This potentially prevents inconsistent state caused by forking a process while the background thread is running -- see Issue 6721. ---------- keywords: +patch nosy: +sbt versions: +Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file23062/mp_queue_pickle_in_main_thread.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10886> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
