This violates the Zen of Python: 'Errors should + never pass silently. Unless explicitly silenced.' + + However, we don't want to log the exception as soon as + set_exception() is called: if the calling code is written + properly, it will get the exception and handle it properly. But + we *do* want to log it if result() or exception() was never called + -- otherwise developers waste a lot of time wondering why their + buggy code fails silently. + + An earlier attempt added a __del__() method to the Future class + itself, but this backfired because the presence of __del__() + prevents garbage collection from breaking cycles. A way out of + this catch-22 is to avoid having a __del__() method on the Future + class itself, but instead to have a reference to a helper object + with a __del__() method that logs the traceback, where we ensure + that the helper object doesn't participate in cycles, and only the + Future has a reference to it. + + The helper object is added when set_exception() is called. When + the Future is collected, and the helper is present, the helper + object is also collected, and its __del__() method will log the + traceback. When the Future's result() or exception() method is + called (and a helper object is present), it removes the the helper + object, after calling its clear() method to prevent it from + logging. + + One downside is that we do a fair amount of work to extract the + traceback from the exception, even when it is never logged. It + would seem cheaper to just store the exception object, but that + references the traceback, which references stack frames, which may + reference the Future, which references the _TracebackLogger, and + then the _TracebackLogger would be included in a cycle, which is + what we're trying to avoid! As an optimization, we don't + immediately format the exception; we only do the work when + activate() is called, which call is delayed until after all the + Future's callbacks have run. Since usually a Future has at least + one callback (typically set by 'yield from') and usually that + callback extracts the callback, thereby removing the need to + format the exception. + + PS.
