STINNER Victor <victor.stin...@haypocalc.com> added the comment: Twisted uses the following code (on UNIX-like OS):
def launchWithName(name): if name and name != sys.argv[0]: exe = os.path.realpath(sys.executable) log.msg('Changing process name to ' + name) os.execv(exe, [name, sys.argv[0], '--originalname'] + sys.argv[1:]) Twisted doesn't care if sys.executable is invalid when argv[0] has been changed. sys.executable is only used to change the process name (sys.executable is used before argv[0] is modified). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7774> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
