[Pyobjc-dev] threads + autoreleasepools

[Just v. R. <ju...@le...>]

When I use Cocoa functions in a different thread, I get lots of warnings
like this:

2003-02-15 22:57:19.522 python2.3[9157] *** _NSAutoreleaseNoPool():
Object 0x2878170 of class NSInvocation autoreleased with no pool in
place - just leaking

However, creating an NSAutoreleasePool manually doesn't work the way I
think it should work:

>>> NSAutoreleasePool.alloc().init()
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ValueError: NSInvalidArgumentException - *** -[NSAutoreleasePool
retain]: Cannot retain an autorelease pool
>>> 

Any wisdom? Or is it a bug?

Just
