Which means you cancel a running task but still have to wait for it and check if it eventually has a result. This is OK for internal use, but highly counter intuitive for the end-user. And it makes the cancelled status even more inconsistent, as calling cancel on a running task does not ensure it will actually be cancelled.
This is highly disadvised by the documentation, and I think most users ignore a task once it has been cancelled while running. _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/BPKASVTS4OVV7JMJ7QY632FGMC7XVGP7/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
