Graham Dumpleton added the comment: It is past my bed time and not thinking straight, but I believe Antoine is aligned with what I had in mind, as need multiple thread states per OS thread where each is associated with separate interpreter.
My main reason for allowing NULL to EnsureEX rather than requiring main_interpreter to be explicitly passed, is that way way back in time, my recollection is that getting access to the main interpreter pointer was a pain as you had to iterate over the list of interpreters and assume it was the last one due to it being created first. I don't remember there being a special global variable or function for getting a pointer to the main interpreter. This may well have changed since and there is an easier way do let me know. So saw it as a convenience. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
