New submission from Erik Cederstrand <e...@1calendar.dk>: In Python 2.6.6 on OSX:
>>> import inspect >>> from multiprocessing import Queue >>> q = Queue() >>> print(inspect.getargspec(q.put)) ArgSpec(args=['self', 'obj', 'block', 'timeout'], varargs=None, keywords=None, defaults=(True, None)) >>> from Queue import Queue >>> q = Queue() >>> print(inspect.getargspec(q.put)) ArgSpec(args=['self', 'item', 'block', 'timeout'], varargs=None, keywords=None, defaults=(True, None)) Notice the 'obj' argument in the multiprocessing version and the 'item' argument in the Queue version. I think 'obj' should be renamed to 'item' to be in line with the other implementation and to agree with the docs: (http://docs.python.org/library/multiprocessing.html?highlight=multiprocessing#multiprocessing.Queue.put): put(item[, block[, timeout]]) ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 128200 nosy: Erik.Cederstrand, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: multiprocessing.Queue's put() signature differs from docs versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11155> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
