New submission from John-Mark Gurney <j...@funkthat.com>:
If I create a coro from an async iterator, then wait_for it w/ a timeout, but shielded, so it won't get canceled, and then await upon it, it returns invalid data. See the attached test case. The reason I do the following is to make sure that an async iterator that I have written doesn't return data early, and needs to wait till later. If I didn't shield it, then the async iterator would get cancelled, and I don't want this. I'd expect either correct results to be returned, or an exception to be raised, but in this case, and the docs for wait_for ( https://docs.python.org/3/library/asyncio-task.html#asyncio.wait_for ), I'd expect the correct results to be returned. In the attached case, this is the results that I get: $python3.7 asyncitertc.py 3.7.5 (default, Oct 18 2019, 23:59:39) [Clang 7.0.2 (clang-700.1.81)] timed out yielding 1 results: None getting 2: 2 I do not have python 3.8 to test with. ---------- files: asyncitertc.py messages: 360254 nosy: jmg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: getting invalid data from async iterator Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file48852/asyncitertc.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue39386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
