New submission from Willard <cptnwill...@gmail.com>: The following script raises several "_strptime_time" AttributeErrors (on OS X 10.4 at least).
If time.strptime is used before starting the threads, then no exception is raised (the issue may thus come from strptime.py not being imported in a thread safe manner). import time import thread def f(): for m in xrange(1, 13): for d in xrange(1,29): time.strptime("2010%02d%02d"%(m,d),"%Y%m%d") for _ in xrange(10): thread.start_new_thread(f, ()) time.sleep(3) > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "[...]/test.py", line 75, in f > time.strptime("2010%02d%02d"%(m,d),"%Y%m%d") > AttributeError: _strptime_time ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 99718 nosy: cptnwillard severity: normal status: open title: time.strptime not thread safe type: crash versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7980> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
