Problem with shared iterators #4

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Issue 1366311 talks about releasing the GIL in the "re" module, but points to a 
problem which could occur with scanner objects which are shared across threads.

Unfortunately this module has just that problem. :-(

I'm currently attempting to fix it, but it's proving to be surprisingly 
difficult. When the iterator terminates in a thread, it's being collected, 
which causes a failure later when another thread tries to use it.

Revision 4dc5f7f181 didn't fix it.

Now works for Python 3, but has broken iterators for Python 2.

Further investigation needed...

Fixed for both Python 3 and Python 2.
