Ok, I will give it a go and try to allow it when they surround with gil blocks. I would however like to reiterate that it is a special-case, inconsistent with previous behaviour, and basically extends the language and won't work for functions that are called and declared 'with gil'. But it is convenient, so I can't help but like it at the same time :] > Stefan > _______________________________________________ > cython-devel mailing list > cython-devel@python.org > http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel > _______________________________________________ cython-devel mailing list cython-devel@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/cython-devel
