Ronald Oussoren added the comment: Note that the OSX port already does this for framework builds. I don't know why we don't use the same code for shared library builds.
Issue #15498 contains a patch that switches this code from a deprecated nextstep-era API to dladdr. Two comments on the patch attached to this issue: 1) The name "_PyImport_GetModulePath" is confusing, I'd use _PyImport_GetSharedLibPath to make clear that this is locating the shared library. 2) The code calls dladdr on a static variable that's introduced just for that, it is also possible to call dladdr on an already existing symbol (for example the address of a function in the public API). ---------- nosy: +ronaldoussoren _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18309> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
