Martin Panter <vadmium...@gmail.com> added the comment: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/4283 adds a secondary timeout, which defaults to 1 s when there is no main timeout. But this seems complicated and arbitrary. As I understand, the main use case discussed here was waiting without a timeout for a child that exits soon after the interrupt. But are there any practical use cases or demand for:
* Limiting the wait time after the interrupt (despite no timeout before the interrupt)? * Customizing this additional timeout? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue25942> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
