Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
I'm trying to understand the proposed solution, "have _imp.is_frozen() check the module in sys.modules." Does that mean it would do a dict lookup first? Maybe you should do that in the caller instead? importlib/_bootstrap.py calls it a few times, but I'm not convinced that all call sites can be called with "os.path" -- do you know which path was taken when this failed? I worry about the complexity of the importlib bootstrapping mechanism. Grepping through the source for _bootstrap and _bootstrap_external has not given me any understanding of how this works. Do you know if there are docs for this? Or do we just need to ask Brett? ---------- nosy: +gvanrossum _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue45272> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
