New submission from cindykrafft:
The tp_name field in thread.LockType is set as "thread.lock". This is incorrect
and conflicts with the value set in dummy_thread.
Python 2.7.6 (default, Sep 9 2014, 15:04:36)
[GCC 4.2.1 Compatible Apple LLVM 6.0 (clang-600.0.39)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import thread
>>> import dummy_thread
>>> thread.LockType.__name__
'lock'
>>> dummy_thread.LockType.__name__
'LockType'
Code which depends on the ability to look up a class based on module and name
(see the following code taken from pickle.py) breaks due to this behavior, so
my preferred fix would be to change tp_name to a value consistent with
dummy_thread.
try:
__import__(module)
mod = sys.modules[module]
klass = getattr(mod, name)
except (ImportError, KeyError, AttributeError):
raise PicklingError(
"Can't pickle %r: it's not found as %s.%s" %
(obj, module, name))
Happy to submit a patch if someone could confirm.
