Kristján Valur Jónsson added the comment: Thanks Richard. I wonder if the issues with the multiprocessing tests can be fixed by making use of Barriers?
One of the reasons I introduced Barriers into the lib originally was my alarm at seeing the various springklings of different _wait() calls in the unittests, particularly in the threading module (there are Condition variable tests there still that have race conditions, that are cunnrently hidden by liberal use of _wait()) Then I started to wonder if it were appropriate to use a Barrier in the Condition variable tests, particularly given that the former is implemented by way of the latter :) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8800> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
