New submission from Johannes M. <jcmuel...@posteo.de>:
Since about a decade, it's a know problem that NumPy and Pandas initialization function crashes on reinitialization after a call to Py_Finalize() + Py_Initialize(). [https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/8097] [https://github.com/numpy/numpy/issues/11925] It seems to be unlikely that this problem gets fixed soon. Due to the popularity of the modules, it would be good to add this information to the documentation of Py_FinalizeEx(), such that developers, who are planning to embed Python get this information already at the moment when they read the documentation. I would suggest to change the following sentence: Some extensions may not work properly if their initialization routine is called more than once; to Some extensions, like NumPy and Pandas, may not work properly if their initialization routine is called more than once; ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 325275 nosy: docs@python, jcmuel priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Py_FinalizeEx() - Bugs & caveats - Add info that NumPy and Pandas don't support reinitialization type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34665> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
