A function's func_closure contains cell objects that hold the variables. These are readable if you can set the func_closure of some function of your own. If the overall plan includes the ability to restrict func_closure setting (or reading) in a restricted interpreter, then you might be okay. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
