STINNER Victor <vstin...@python.org> added the comment:
I proposed PR 28549 to fix this very old threading issue. A C extension can spawn threads without using the threading module and then then run Python code which imports the threading module. In this case, threading._main_thread is the thread which imported first the threading module. My PR changes so threading._shutdown() simply ignores _main_thread when it happens. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue1596321> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
