Ah, I got it. You know what, this actually is starting to make sense. Guido, what do you think about this? Essentially, (Ilya, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong), we can implement the following: 1. Add a new thread-local storage, say "_running_loop" 2. Add another method "asyncio.get_running_loop()" 3. Update some places in asyncio where we currently use "get_event_loop()", such as Future constructor, Task.current_task, etc. This might actually solve an awkwardness of get_event_loop(), which when called, instantiates an event loop if it doesn't find one, which makes it difficult to know if an event loop was running before the call. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26969> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
