Hi Steve. I'll try to explain what is my motivation. I need a reliable way to run Python (not matter embedded or not) in isolated mode, but still having current directory in `sys.path` (empty entry). Ironically I could misuse normal mode to simulate isolated mode with specified %PYTHONPATH% (which is not much handy, by the way), but hiding Windows Registry keys would look pretty hard (it is impossible to make a bat/cmd wrapper). Possibility to search %PYTHONPATH% in HKLM entries makes it even worse. Empty entry in `sys.path` is a extremely popular thing, and many software depend on it. It looks like a bug that isolated mode cannot support such entry. # How would I fix it. Possibly we should allow another keyword for adding an empty entry (like we have an exclusion for `import site`). Ideas are appreciated. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue29326> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
