That's not what I'm proposing. What I'm proposing is that the new API uses a per-interpreter TLS key (so you can have several thread states per OS thread). So basically: Ensure: - look up global TLS key, which returns the thread state - if no thread state (TLS lookup failed), create a new one for the main interpreter and register it on the global TLS key New API: - look up the interpreter's TLS key, which returns the thread state - if no thread state (TLS lookup failed), create a new one for the interpreter and register it on the interpreter's TLS key Graham is merely suggesting for simplification that "global TLS key" == "main interpreter's TLS key", so Ensure(...) == EnsureEx(main_interpreter, ...). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15751> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
