New submission from Ned Batchelder: If I register an atexit handler, and then call os.execv, the handler is not invoked before my process changes over to the new program. Shouldn't it be? My program is ending, so my atexit handlers should be invoked.
This is based on this coverage.py bug: https://bitbucket.org/ned/coveragepy/issue/43/coverage-measurement-fails-on-code If the atexit handlers were invoked as part of os.execv, it would work properly. ---------- messages: 178623 nosy: nedbat priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: execv (et al.) should invoke atexit handlers before executing new code versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16822> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
