New submission from Michael Foord <mich...@voidspace.org.uk>: When you execute "python -m package" the package is first imported with sys.argv[0] set to '-c' (and sys.modules['__main__'] exists but is empty. Then package.__main__.py is executed with the correct sys.argv[0].
This means module level code executed during the initial import that attempts to work out how the code is being executed can't use either sys.modules['__main__'] *or* sys.argv[0]. ---------- assignee: ncoghlan messages: 101531 nosy: michael.foord, ncoghlan severity: normal status: open title: sys.argv[0] and python -m package type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.2 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue8202> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
