I am a bit surprised that the code works as intended simply by removing the return statement.

For an example, see _cancel_all_tasks() in >https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/d699d5e6178adca785a8701c32daf5e18fad0bf1/Lib/asyncio/runners.py#L54. So, my best guess as to what's happening is that the tasks are still in progress while the event loop is finalizing, and the exception handler isn't called. But, I can't say that for sure without knowing the implementation of the Jupyter event loop. For now, my recommended solution would be to include something like the above _cancel_all_tasks() or simply await your tasks at the end to ensure they are completed before the event loop is finalized. Alternatively, Jupyter could include something like that in their event loop finalization process, so that users don't have to include it on their own when using asyncio. I would also consider using asyncio.run(), but I'm not certain if it works correctly in a Jupyter notebook. I'm aware that it's not always a viable option when it is desired to use an existing event loop instead of creating a separate one; that's why I'm not explicitly recommending it for this situation. ---------- nosy: +aeros _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40487> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
