Antoine Pitrou added the comment: close() wouldn't terminate the underlying process, so the process would still exist (and wouldn't easily be stoppable from Python anymore) if you were to call close() before terminate() or join().
Perhaps we should instead mandate people call join() before close()? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30596> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
