Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
So this is a problem because the generator owns a resource that it will only release once its .close() method is called, right? And we have no control over when that happens -- we can't make it the responsibility of list() to close the iterator passed into it. It is indeed a painful thing. I wonder if we should put a warning somewhere in the docs and tutorials for generators? The PR looks good. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44482> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
