Pavel Minaev <m...@int19h.org> added the comment:
It's also possible to hit if using some native code that starts a background
thread without going via threading, and runs Python code on that background
thread. In that case, if that Python code then does "import threading", and
threading hasn't been imported yet, then you have this same problem.
Here's a pure Python repro using ctypes on Win32:
#--------------------------
import sys, time
from ctypes import *
ThreadProc = WINFUNCTYPE(c_uint32, c_void_p)
@ThreadProc
def thread_proc(_):
import threading
print(threading.current_thread() is threading.main_thread())
return 0
assert "threading" not in sys.modules
#import threading # uncomment to fix
windll.kernel32.CreateThread(None, c_size_t(0), thread_proc, None, c_uint32(0),
None)
time.sleep(1)
assert "threading" in sys.modules
import threading
print(threading.current_thread() is threading.main_thread())
#--------------------------
Here's the output:
>py -3 main.py
True
False
Exception ignored in: <module 'threading' from
'C:\\Python\\3.7-64\\lib\\threading.py'>
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python\3.7-64\lib\threading.py", line 1276, in _shutdown
