New submission from Jyotirmoy Bhattacharya: The clear() method for Event objects currently does not return anything.
It would be useful to have it return the state of the Event prior to it being cleared. This would be useful since multiple threads may wake up from an event at the same time and all may try to clear() the event. A return value from clear will indicate to a thread if it won the race to clear the event. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 287039 nosy: jmoy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: clear() should return prior state in threading.Event type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29449> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
