New submission from Brian Brazil <brian.bra...@gmail.com>: http://docs.python.org/py3k/library/threading.html
"Roughly, a thread is alive from the moment the start() method returns until its run() method terminates." Using "Roughly" in relation to threading is a bit unspecific. I've had a look through _bootstrap_inner() and attached a patch to clarify this. ---------- assignee: d...@python components: Documentation files: threading-roughly-doc-fix.patch keywords: patch messages: 111278 nosy: bbrazil, d...@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: threading is_alive documnetation is unclear versions: Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file18140/threading-roughly-doc-fix.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9339> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
