Hey Mark,

Yes that is superfluous now. We removed the GIL back in the 4.0 transition to be compatible with python libraries that are incompatible with it. Since then you don't need to manage it directly anymore.

Hello,

I’ve started migrating a set of plugins written in ParaView 3.14.1 to ParaView 4.0.1 There’s a class method that uses pqPythonShell and tries to call releaseControl(). Sure enough, pqPythonShell in 3.14.1 has a releseControl() method, but it’s no longer there in 4.0.1.

What’s recommended for this, is that method just superfluous now?

Thanks,
Mark
