That's the million dollar question. :) FYI, one additional challenge is when an extension module depends on a third-party C library which itself keeps global state which might leak between subinterpreters. The Cryptography project ran into this several years ago with OpenSSL and they were understandably grumpy about it. > But with some macro trickery that could be made source compatible for > extensions. Yeah, that's one approach that we've discussed in the past (e.g. at the last core sprint). -eric _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/H3RCS47ZUITKKXR3BVYOPXNXBZYF5ZN4/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
