Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: Still no patch from me, but I did create the rudiments of a shared script for poking around at the import internals (Tools/scripts/import_diagnostics.py)
Looking at Antoine's patch, I'd be happier with it if it *didn't* mutate the attributes of _frozen_importlib, but instead just added importlib._bootstrap as an alias for accessing it. That would bring it in line with the way we handle os.path as being just an alias for the appropriate top level module: >>> import os.path >>> os.path.__name__ 'posixpath' Getting access to the source level _bootstrap implementation for testing purposes would then just require the usual techniques for bypassing C accelerators (specifically, using test.support.import_fresh_module with "_frozen_importlib" blocked). That would address the immediate problem of module duplication, without misrepresenting what is going on in potentially confusing ways. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14657> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
