Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nick Coghlan (ncoghlan) Assigned to: Nick Coghlan (ncoghlan) Summary: The -m switch does not use the builtin __main__ module Initial Comment: The -m switch creates a new module object to execute the requested module, and then throws it away before returning control to the interpreter core. This is incompatible with the -i command line switch (and its environment variable equivalent), and would also cause problems if any code executed while looking for the module to be executed (e.g. sitecustomize.py or package __init__ modules) grabbed a reference to the original __main__ module. (Creating bug report because I don't think the quick fix I checked in to SVN is adequate, and it's taking me longer than I planned to roll the quick fix back and fix the problem properly) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1764407&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
