I'm guessing this was supposed to say "My team lead says my ...."

If so, you'll at least need to add an acquire/release pair using a threading.Lock()... > if not waht woutld be the pythonic way Other comments: 1. Why the property? Can't you just access ._count directly? 2. You don't need the "self" in the lambda, since you're not using it anyway. 3. There aren't any comments. At the least there ought to be one above "_count = 0" telling the reader what the variable is for. 4. Why are you asking us? The term "pythonic" doesn't have a fixed definition, so asking your "Tead Lead" makes more sense. From us you might learn something, but the result might still not satisfy the one person you need to satisfy with this. Maybe all he wants is to see a getter method instead of the lambda... -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
