Free-threaded Python Support

[mynewestgitaccount]

Now that Python 3.14 is in its rc phase and free-threading is no longer an experimental configuration, would support for free-threading (and Python 3.14 itself) be possible?

I realize this is a huge ask considering how much of the SDK is in C++, but I thought asking couldn't hurt. 🙂

Hi @mynewestgitaccount -- thanks for the inquiry! We are keeping an eye on the 3.14 release schedule and will aim to have 3.14 support shortly after it is available.

Unfortunately I cannot speak to when the SDK might add support for free threaded Python. But, I will create a ticket in our JIRA system to log some pathfinding. I'll follow-up once the ticket is created. 👍

I have created PYCBC-1702 to track some pathfinding for potentially supporting free-threading.
