Maybe I'm wrong about this. My line of thoughts is: a failed fork() call is a bug in the program. Now, the master process will continue operating as it was, no warnings, no errors. The child process will crash with a RuntimeError exception. Will it be properly reported/logged? I guess the forked child will share the stderr, so the exception won't pass completely unnoticed, right? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21998> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
