New submission from Paul Moore: imp.load_module appears to have a regression - the file argument is not allowed to be None when loading a C_EXTENSION. The pywin32 post-install script for version 217 calls imp.load_module for a C extension with file=None, so presumably this worked in earlier versions.
Note that apparently pywin32 tip no longer calls load_module in this way, and load_module is marked as deprecated in the documentation, so it is not clear if this issue actually needs fixing. See #15828 for some background. ---------- components: Library (Lib) keywords: 3.3regression messages: 170178 nosy: brett.cannon, georg.brandl, ncoghlan, pmoore priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: imp.load_module won't accept None for the file argument for a C extension type: behavior versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15902> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
