thanks, sounds good!
but that again:
from __future__ import with_statement
class safe_dict(dict):
def __init__(self):
self.lock = threading.Lock()
self.d = {}
def __getitem__(self, key):
with self.lock:
return self.d[key]
def __setitem__(self, key, value):
with self.lock:
self.d[key] = value
def __delitem__(self, key):
with self.lock:
del self.d[key]
- in __getitem__, does it release the lock after returning the item?
- wouldn't it be better to use threading.RLock, mutex, ... instead?
