I intended to file a bug because of the shutdown problem but found out there is this ticket already. In our application we sometimes run into this problem that you can't exit because of a hanging TCP connection used inside a ThreadPoolExecutor task. executor.shutdown(wait=False) does not help - the process still hangs. Another problem was inside our tests were a bug caused a hanging task inside a thread pool executor and the test runner (pytest) would not terminate because of this. I actually went so far to drop the thread reference inside the concurrent.futures.thread module. :-( A documented way to drop a hanging executor thread would be very much appreciated. ---------- nosy: +torsten _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36780> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
