Hi ,I had a Question,i hope i'll find the solution here. Say i have a Queue. >>> h = Queue.Queue(maxsize=0) >>> h.put(1) >>> h.put(2) >>> h.empty() False >>> h.join() >>> h.empty() False >>> h.get() 1 >>> h.get() 2 >>> h.get() Blocked....................... My Question is : In a single threaded environment why does the get() gets blocked , instead of raising an exception.On interpreter i have no way to resume working. And my second question is : Why doe we have to explicitly call task_done after get(). why doesn't get() implicitly call task_done(). as for put() entry for unfinished_task is automatically added .why not get deleted in get() then.
The way it's used is to get a item, process it, and then signal that it has finished with it. There's going to be a period of time when an item is not in the queue, but is still being processed. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
