New submission from Tom Christie <t...@tomchristie.com>: The `contextvars` documentation, at https://docs.python.org/3.7/library/contextvars.html starts with the following:
"This module provides APIs to manage, store, and access non-local state." I assume that must be a documentation bug, right. The module isn't for managing non-local state, it's for managing state that *is* local. I'd assume it ought to read... "This module provides APIs to manage, store, and access context-local state." (ie. for managing state that is transparently either thread-local or task-local depending on the current execution context.) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation, asyncio messages: 315792 nosy: asvetlov, docs@python, tomchristie, yselivanov priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: `contextvars` documentation incorrectly refers to "non-local state". type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33366> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
