>From what I know the GIL is released by calling PyEval_ReleaseThread() or >PyEval_SaveThread(). I see we can use PyThreadState_Delete() to clean up-specifically destroy thread state but does not release the GIL and requires a thread state. On the other hand, PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent() allows to both clean up the current thread state - no thread state is required as well release the GIL which is convenient. I would not fight so much to keep it public given we have PyEval_ReleaseThread() or PyEval_SaveThread(). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37878> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
