New submission from Brett Cannon <br...@python.org>: There should no longer be any implicit part of import when there doesn't have to be. To make import fully explicit, some things need to happen (in context to importlib):
* Expose FileLoader * Expose SourceFileLoader * Expose PathFinder * Expose the extension loader * Expose the default path hook * Explicitly set sys.meta_path with PathFinder * Explicitly set sys.path_hooks with the default path hook and zipimport * Make sys.path_importer_cache view None as no finder discovered * Insert None into sys.path_importer_cache instead of NullImporter I am not exposing SourcelessFileLoader because importlib publicly tries to discourage the shipping of .pyc files w/o their corresponding source files. Otherwise all objects as used by importlib for performing imports will become public. ---------- assignee: brett.cannon components: Interpreter Core messages: 158552 nosy: brett.cannon priority: release blocker severity: normal status: open title: Make import machinery explicit type: behavior versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14605> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
