New submission from anatoly techtonik <techto...@gmail.com>: On Windows, if Python is unable to find its .dll it crashes badly. This affects `vurtualenv` project that doesn't copy .dll file. It would be more user friendly if python.exe launcher could detect this situation and fail gracefully.
Such kind of dynamic linking can also serve as an example for building launchers for applications that optionally provide Python scripting depending on if Python .dll is present on the system. And the ultimate launcher will allow to load any available .dll This can be extremely handy for apps with embedded Python that use scripts compatible with Python 2.5+ ---------- messages: 136173 nosy: techtonik priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: python.exe crashes if it is unable to find its .dll versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12097> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
