异步任务取消。 是同步的吗？

Question

I understand that task.cancel() arranges an exception to be thrown inside the task function. Is that happen in a synchronous way? (As I don't await task.cancel()). Can code that follows the line task.cancel() assume that the task will no longer run?

A simple example:

async def task1():
    await asyncio.sleep(3)
    print("after sleep")

async def task2():
    t = loop.create_task(task1())
    await asyncio.sleep(1)
    t.cancel()
    # can the following code lines assume that task1 is no longer running?

loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
loop.run_forever()

Answer 1

No. task.cancel() only marks task to be cancelled later. You should explicitly await task after it and catch CancelledError to be sure task is cancelled.
