Martin Panter added the comment: I’m not familiar with this module, but I believe “lock” is indeed keyword-only. If you were to try a positional argument, it would be picked up as part of *args:
>>> multiprocessing.Value("I") # Default to 0, lock=True <Synchronized wrapper for c_uint(0)> >>> multiprocessing.Value("I", False) # False == 0, still lock=True <Synchronized wrapper for c_uint(0)> >>> multiprocessing.Value("I", lock=False) c_uint(0) ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25201> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
