Jesse Noller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Specifically:
>>> import multiprocessing Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "/Users/jesse/open_source/subversion/python- trunk/Lib/multiprocessing/__init__.py", line 63, in <module> import _multiprocessing AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'BufferTooShort' This occurs due to the fact that __init__.py imports _multiprocessing prior to the definition of the exceptions. This should be moved to the ccode. From Georg: "The test suite passes (at least for some buildbots) because it imports _multiprocessing first, which then in its init function imports multiprocessing to get the BufferTooShort exception. Since BufferTooShort and other exceptions inheriting from ProcessError are simple derived exceptions, why aren't they created in the C module in the first place?" _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3050> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
