Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: Returning another kind of module can be dangerous here, because extension modules are handled specially (see _PyImport_FixupExtensionObject), and it's not obvious what this does to normal modules.
But I agree that _imp.load_dynamic() could be extended to plain modules. A bit like class/type unification. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18426> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
