New submission from Karl Bicker: The multiprocessing.JoinableQueue's function join() should have a timeout argument so that one can check on other things while waiting for a queue to finish.
As join() uses a condition to wait anyway, a timeout is easily implemented and passed to the Condidition.wait(). Patch is attached. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: JoinableQueue_with_timeout.patch keywords: patch messages: 170812 nosy: legordian priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: multiprocessing JoinableQueue's join function with timeout type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file27233/JoinableQueue_with_timeout.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15983> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
