Richard Oudkerk added the comment: As far as I can see they are mostly equivalent. For instance, ApplyResult (the type returned by Pool.apply_async()) is virtually the same as a Future.

Why can't you do the same with ThreadPoolExecutor? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17140> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
