New submission from Nick Coghlan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: The "PEP 8 compliant" API for multiprocessing and threading needs to be cleaned up before release as per the thread on python-dev. The release manager gave approval for this change during that discussion [1].
Changes needed: - remove Py3k warnings from the threading module (old API is going to be kept around even in Py3k) - change get_name/set_name into a "name" property - change is_daemon/set_daemon into a "daemon" property (Note that changing "is_alive" to be a property is not on that list - that can be a fairly expensive thing to check for the multiprocessing library. I also left out active_count(), as I think the underscore adds clarity in that case) [1] http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2008-June/080285.html ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 69647 nosy: ncoghlan priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: Deficiencies in multiprocessing/threading API type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 3.0 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3352> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
