Steve Dower <steve.do...@python.org> added the comment:
Here's a trivial workaround for the import hook problem: Assume we have "my_module.foo", and the import hook enables importing foo files. Instead of just shipping "my_module.foo", you ship "my_module.py" and "_my_module.foo", where "my_module.py" looks like: import my_import_hook my_import_hook.install() from _my_module import * This really isn't hard to do. As a bonus, you don't even need a full import hook anymore - you can use any kind of loader you want. And it should be fully backwards compatible (assuming special tricks weren't part of your public API), so your users won't even notice the upgrade. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33944> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
