Stein Series Release Notes

1.37.0

New Features

• Add support for profiling (capture function calltrace) service’s worker processes.

1.35.0

New Features

• The ThreadGroup class has new add_timer_args() and add_dynamic_timer_args() methods to create timers passing the positional and keyword arguments to the callback as a sequence and a mapping. This API provides more flexibility for the addition of timer control options in the future.

• The ThreadGroup add_timer_args() and add_dynamic_timer_args() methods now support passing a stop_on_exception=False argument to allow the timer to keep running even when an exception is raised by the callback function.

Deprecation Notes

• The ThreadGroup.cancel() method is deprecated and will be removed in a future major release.

• The API of the ThreadGroup add_timer() and add_dynamic_timer() methods has been identified as error-prone when passing arguments intended for the callback function. Passing callback arguments in this way is now deprecated. Callers should use the new add_timer_args() or add_dynamic_timer_args() methods (respectively) instead when it is necessary to pass arguments to the timer callback function.
