Nick Coghlan added the comment: EnvironmentVarGuard doesn't work through monkeypatching - you make your changes *through* the guard, and it undoes them in __exit__, as well as restoring the original binding (in case *other* code monkeypatched it).
This allows it to still be used when testing code that is *supposed* to make real environment changes (e.g. so they're visible in a subprocess). Buildbot is currently down, so I can't check the logs again :( ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20053> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
