Tim Peters <t...@python.org> added the comment:
u1 is a global _only_ in a process that runs `function()`, which declares u1
global and assigns it a value. You have no sane expectation that a worker
process (none of which run `function()`) will know anything about it.
Are you sure you're running 2.7 and 3.7 on the same machine? It's impossible
that this code ever "worked" under Windows, but it might under Linux-y systems,
which use `fork()` to create worker processes.
The traceback you showed was obviously run under Windows. Under Python 2.7.11
on Windows, I get the same kind of error:
NameError: global name 'u1' is not defined
This is the code:
from multiprocessing import Pool
import traceback
class Utils:
def __init__(self):
self.count = 10
def function():
global u1
u1 = Utils()
l1 = range(3)
process_pool = Pool(1)
try:
process_pool.map(add, l1, 1)
process_pool.close()
process_pool.join()
except Exception as e:
process_pool.terminate()
process_pool.join()
print(traceback.format_exc())
print(e)
def add(num):
total = num + u1.count
print(total)
if __name__ == "__main__":
function()
