New submission from Chris Jerdonek <chris.jerdo...@gmail.com>: I think it would help to clarify which collections.deque methods are thread-safe:
http://docs.python.org/dev/library/collections.html?highlight=deque#collections.deque Currently, the documentation says that "Deques support thread-safe, memory efficient appends and pops from either side...," but it isn't obvious if this is meant to apply to all methods, or just the methods named append*() and pop*(). For example, is rotate() thread-safe? The illustration given of d.appendleft(d.pop()) seems like it could be interleaved. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation keywords: easy messages: 165275 nosy: cjerdonek, docs@python, rhettinger priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: clarify which deque methods are thread-safe versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15329> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
