Brett Cannon added the comment: So the approaches I have been using make a loader lazy, so what you have to change in terms of sys.meta_path, sys.path_hooks, etc. would very from loader to loader.
I have realized one tricky thing with all of this is that importlib itself inspects modules post-import to verify that __loader__ and __package__ have been set. That typically triggers an immediate load and so might need to be special-cased. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17621> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
