I would suggest just changing __iter__ to be the equivalent of the
current iterhosts() and then changing iterhosts() as described.
Such a change would would also fix the thread safety and nested
iteration problems problems suffered by the current __iter__
implementation. I haven't executed the following, but from reading the
code I am confident they would behave as a I describe in the comments:
# With the current implementation, this is an infinite loop
net = IPv4Network("192.168.2.0")
for x in net:
iter(net)
# And this only runs the inner loop once
for x in net:
for y in net:
pass
Cheers,
Nick.
