Gregory P. Smith added the comment: Brett wrote a pure python zipimporter in http://bugs.python.org/issue17630 :)
FWIW, the zipimport.c implementation (in 2.7) causes us serious pain when we've got the stdlib in a .zip file and need to update that while there are running python processes (which have cached the central directory of that .zip file but do not also keep a fd to the zip file open or even attempt to stat the file to see if it has changed [racy but it'd still be better than the nothing that is done now]). ---------- nosy: +gregory.p.smith _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14678> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
