Марк Коренберг added the comment: For delayed execution methods:
"Returned handle is actually timer object. That timer can be deactivated using asyncio.Handle.cancel() method, so registered callback won't be called". For other callback registration methods: "Returned handle may be used to unregister callback using asyncio.Handle.cancel(), so registered callback won't be called". Also: 1. Documentation of .cancel does not say if it is allowed to cancel cancelled handle. 2. Documentation does not say if it is allowed to cancel timer, that was already fired. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24509> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
