I am playing with passing weakreferences into the iterator objects, but this may not be enough. For example, take the code of ApplyResult.get: def get(self, timeout=None): if self._pool() is None: raise RuntimeError("The pool is dead!") <--- new code self.wait(timeout) It can be that the pool is alive when we check for it (self._pool() is None) but while the code is waiting with no timeout, the pool dies, effectively leaving the program deadlocked with no error. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35378> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
