New submission from Charles McEachern:
I'm calling the constructor of Foo, a subclass of str. Expected output:
Called Foo.__new__ with args = ('TIMESTAMP', 'INPUT0')
TIMESTAMP OUTPUT0
When I make the call using a multiprocessing.pool.ThreadPool, it works fine.
But when I make the call using a multiprocessing.Pool (using the apply or
apply_async method), I get:
Called Foo.__new__ with args = ('TIMESTAMP', 'INPUT0')
Called Foo.__new__ with args = ('TIMESTAMP OUTPUT0',)
Exception in thread Thread-3:
...
ValueError: Bad Foo input: ('TIMESTAMP OUTPUT0',)
That is, the object I just constructed seems to be getting shoved right back
into the constructor.
When I swap out the Foo class for the similar Goo class, which is not a str,
and uses __init__ instead of __new__, I again see no problems:
Called Goo.__init__ with args = ('TIMESTAMP', 'INPUT0')
<Goo TIMESTAMP OUTPUT0>
I see this in 2.7.9 as well as 3.4.5. Looks like it's present in 2.7.2 and
3.5.2 as well:
