I have been playing with possible solutions for a while and the weak-reference solution seems not robust enough as there are too potential race conditions between the destruction of the weakreferences (the pool) and the handling code. I would advocate again for using a strong reference. The reasons are: * The rest of the stdlib is using this solution to link iterator objects and similar to their parents (lists, dicts, sets...etc all have strong references back to their parents). * This solution is backwards compatible with the current behaviour. * We have the new ResourceWarnigns to make clear that this behaviour is not supported. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
