Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: It is appropriate if iterating modifying dict raises RuntimeError, produces less items or even produce some items multiple times. What is not appropriate -- crash, hang and infinite iteration. There was a proposition about making this behavior more consistent (issue19332), but it was rejected.
I would suggest just remove assert() from your patch and address undefined behavior in other issue. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28580> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
