I wrote PR 20763 to "finalize" static types in Py_Finalize(). It mostly works, but "./Programs/_testembed test_forced_io_encoding" crash. This program calls Py_Initialize() and Py_Finalize() multiple times in a loop. It doesn't look to be safe to clear static types. Many functions rely on the fact that static types are "always there" and are never finalized. Also, only a few static types are cleared by my PR: many static types are left unchanged. For example, static types of the _io module. It seems like a safer approach is to continue the work on bpo-40077: "Convert static types to PyType_FromSpec()". ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue1635741> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
