Yes, lock._py3k_acquire() has been added to the default PyPy and will be in the next release. It's not completely clear yet if the naming of this particular method is best. It could also be called lock._pypy_acquire(), or be instead a built-in function in the __pypy__ module. The point is to not change the semantics of 2.7's lock.acquire(), as it would indeed require 2.8 --- and there is little point for just a couple of minor details like this one. A bientôt, Armin. _______________________________________________ pypy-dev mailing list pypy-dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pypy-dev
