Richard Oudkerk added the comment: There are lots of things that behave differently depending on the currently set start method: Lock(), Semaphore(), Queue(), Value(), ... It is not just when creating a Process or Pool that you need to know the start method.
Passing a context or start_method argument to all of these constructors would be very awkward, which is why I think it is better to treat the context as an object with methods Process(), Pool(), Lock(), Semaphore(), etc. Unfortunately, I do not have time to work on this just now... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18999> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
