Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:
Yeah, but in that scenario, it is just as good to LoadLibrary("python39.dll") and use it as if it was LoadLibrary("python3.dll") because the interaction model is identical. The only reason to load python3.dll explicitly is if you are not keeping it adjacent to python39.dll, and so you need to pre-load it before the interpreter tries to import a native module. It doesn't provide any benefit for the host app other than not having to know what DLL you're loading, and most of us consider a critical security vulnerability rather than a feature ;) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue29399> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
