W1506 (bad-thread-instantiation)
Problematic code:
import threading
def thread_target(n):
print(n ** 2)
thread = threading.Thread(thread_target, args=(10,))
thread.start()
Correct code:
import threading
def thread_target(n):
print(n ** 2)
thread = threading.Thread(target=thread_target, args=(10,))
thread.start()
Rationale:
The warning is emitted when a threading.Thread class is instantiated without
the target function being passed. By default, the first parameter is the
group param, not the target param.
