[docs] [issue9254] __import__ docstring should recommend importlib.import_module()

Éric Araujo <merwok@netwok.org> added the comment: More rationale for not using a dummy fromlist, from Brett Cannon: “Pulling from sys.modules is the correct way to do this. There are subtle issues when using a bunk fromlist argument (empty modules, double initialization, etc.). If one does not use importlib.import_module -- written *specifically* to prevent people from doing the nasty hack with the fromlist -- then you should use the sys.modules approach, period” ---------- nosy: +merwok _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9254> _______________________________________
