Armin Rigo added the comment: Antoine: sorry if I wasn't clear enough. Obviously you want to encourage people to close their files, but I think personally that it is very bad for the implementation to *most of the time* work anyway and only rarely fail to flush the files. So, speaking only about the implementation, it is (imho) a bad idea to rely on finalizers to flush the files, and something else should be done.
Victor: it does not sound complicated to me to keep the BufferedWriter objects in a doubly-chained list. You're overthinking the issue: there are no multithread issue (we have a GIL) and you don't have to keep track of all 3 objects created by "open". ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17852> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
