[Python-Dev] Clarification for concurrent.futures.Future

2016-10-28 Thread Mark Spruiell
The docs for this class state:

"Future instances are created by Executor.submit() and should not be
created directly except for testing."

https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#future-objects

We have a need for a thread-safe future type in our extension but this
statement makes us hesitate to use it. We don't need the executor
functionality.

We can write our own future class easily enough, we're just wondering what
the justification was for the limitations mentioned in the docs.

Thanks,

Mark Spruiell

Re: [Python-Dev] Clarification for concurrent.futures.Future

2016-10-28 Thread Guido van Rossum
It means that the API for setting results/exceptions is essentially
private and may change. So if you use this you risk that your code
will break randomly at some point in the future when you upgrade
Python.

[Python-Dev] Reminder: 3.6.0b3 snapshot 2016-10-31 12:00 UTC

2016-10-28 Thread Ned Deily
The third, and next-to-last, beta snapshot planned for the 3.6 release cycle is 
coming up in a few days.  With fewer than 7 weeks remaining until the 3.6.0 
release, it is very important that we all focus on stability and correctness.  
Please try to make sure that all remaining non-doc issues associated with new 
features are addressed in b3.  Any remaining 3.6 feature-related issues still 
open after b3 should be marked in the issue tracker as "release blocker" and 
*must* be addressed one way or another by b4, 11-21.  All other non-critical 
bug fixes should also be checked in by b4.  Only release critical and doc fixes 
will be allowed once we exit the beta phase.  Please plan accordingly.

Please contact me if you have any questions about the 3.6.0 schedule or about 
whether a change is appropriate at this point in the 3.6.0 cycle.

To recap, the remaining milestones for 3.6.0:

2016-10-31, 1200 UTC: 3.6.0 beta 3 (feature fixes, bug fixes, doc fixes)

2016-11-21: 3.6.0 beta 4 (important bug fixes and doc fixes)

2016-12-05 3.6.0 release candidate 1 (3.6.0 code freeze, release critical bug 
fixes, doc fixes)

2016-12-16 3.6.0 release (3.6.0rc1 plus any necessary emergency fixes)


Thank you all again for your efforts so far on 3.6!
