Nils Bruin added the comment: I think the difference in behaviour between Py3 and Py2 is coming from:
http://hg.python.org/cpython/file/a26df2d03989/Objects/dictobject.c#l1275 which first clears all values before removing any keys. For a WeakValueDictionary that means all the weakrefs are neutralized before the can be activated. I don't quite understand how Py3 manages to avoid problems for a WeakKeyDictionary, but apparently it does. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17816> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
