Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment:
sys.argv cannot be set until sys exists. As I mentioned above, subsequent calls before finalization must continue to be no-ops. Code that depends on a bug, in this case of sys.argv not existing, is always vulnerable. In this case, I would expect that people who want sys.argv to have a particular value would unconditionally set it. If it were conditionally set, the program would likely exit or otherwise fail a test. I intentionally have not suggested backporting a code change. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue41615> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
