There are several problems with this change: 1) The lifetime of the file descriptor. The file descriptor is borrowed, which normally will lead to not being properly cleaned upon failure or interpreter deallocation. 2) The statistics you are trying to fetch via parsing the file are actually available through better APIS: https://docs.python.org/3/library/gc.html#gc.callbacks and https://docs.python.org/3/library/gc.html#gc.get_stats 3) The stderr output is not stable or considered to be stable between releases. The main purpose is to serve as a quick way to debug or check for statistics without using proper callbacks, but enything more involved needs to use the callbacks. Based on these, I am afraid I don't feel comfortable supporting this patch :( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45928> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
