New submission from Chris Jerdonek: Currently, the Python asyncio.get_event_loop() docs don't say that get_event_loop() returns the currently running event loop when it is called from a coroutine:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloops.html#asyncio.get_event_loop https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-eventloops.html#asyncio.AbstractEventLoopPolicy.get_event_loop This is new behavior that was introduced in Python 3.6 in this issue: https://github.com/python/asyncio/pull/452 Without this, the docs make it seem like get_event_loop() should return the loop that was last passed to set_event_loop(). This could be added with a "Changed in version 3.6" note. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 298380 nosy: chris.jerdonek, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: document the new behavior of get_event_loop() Python 3.6 versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30935> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
