Raymond Hettinger added the comment: FWIW, I don't support adding this functionality. I don't see precedents for Condition Variables behaving this way in other languages. Also, I don't think it is worth the added complexity, learning curve, and maintenance burden. Condition variables are used as primitive for other mutexes and I think we ought to keep them somewhat simple.
If someone wants to notify a specific waiter, then they have other options such as using a separate condition variable that shares the same underlying lock (much as the code in the queue module does). That approach is easy to reason about. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18078> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
