Martin Teichmann <martin.teichm...@gmail.com> added the comment: I looked a bit into the details, and found that bpo-30048 created the described weird behavior. There they fixed the problem that a cancel is ignored if a coroutine manages to cancel its own task and return immediately. As shown in the discussion there, this is actually something happening in real code, and is a valid use case.
They fixed that by setting a CancelledError as an exception raised by the task, but did not cancel that task (they could have, I tested it, it would pass all tests). But this is just a side show of the fact that we have now four different beasts that can be awaited, and behave differently: coroutines, Futures, Tasks, and _GatheringFutures. I think we should consolidate that. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33413> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
