Yes, I think an exception should prevent the fork from happening. It's fail-safe for the PRNG case (you can guarantee that a fork won't occur without properly re-seeding a PRNG), and it makes bugs easier to catch in unit testing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16500> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
