Kristján Valur Jónsson <krist...@ccpgames.com> added the comment: Well, the rationale for keeping the try_finally is that the Condition should continue to work with other Locks, as long as they provide _release_save and _acquire_restore methods. Lock._acquire_condtion onnly knows Lock and RLock intimately enough to automatically reaquire them with teh GIL released.
If I remove the _acuire_restore, we have prohibited the Condition class from using customized locks, or subclasses of locks. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15139> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
