On this specific example, "config.isolated = 1;" ensures that Py_PreInitialize() is also called internally with "PyPreConfig.isolated = 1". > I'd rather have the isolation up front.

While there are supporters of an "isolated Python" (sometimes called "system python"), the fact that it doesn't exist in any Linux distribution nor on any other operating system (Windows, macOS, FreeBSD), whereas it's already doable in Python 3.6 with Py_IsolatedFlag=1 makes me think that users like the ability to control Python with environment variables and configuration files. I would prefer to leave Python as not isolated by default. It's just a matter of comment line arguments. > > * The PEP 432 stores ``PYTHONCASEOK`` into the config.

Currently, importlib._bootstrap_external._install() reads the environment variable and it's the only way to control the option. ... By the way, importlib reads PYTHONCASEOK environment varaible even if isolated mode is enabled (sys.flags.isolated is equal to 1). Is it a bug? :-) Victor _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
