[issue12083] Compile-time option to avoid writing files, including generated bytecode

[Josh Triplett]

New submission from Josh Triplett j...@joshtriplett.org:

PEP 304 provides a runtime option to avoid saving generating bytecode files.  
However, for embedded usage, it would help to have a compile-time option to 
remove all the file-writing code entirely, hardcoding PYTHONBYTECODEBASE=.  I 
ran into this when porting Python to an embedded platform, which will never 
support any form of filesystem write operations; currently, I have to provide 
dummy functions for writing files, which error out when attempting to write to 
anything other than stdout or stderr.

This request is out of scope for 2.7. It is a new feature, and no new features 
can be added to 2.7.
