Terry J. Reedy added the comment: I agree now that the doc should be clearer (and this issue reopened). For one thing, the exact CPython behavior is an implementation issue rather than a language requirement. Which is to say, its behavior is allowed but not required. I believe an implementation *could* use dicts for function local namespaces. Synchronization would not then be an issue.
I will try to work up a concrete suggested replacement. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7083> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
