New submission from Campbell Barton : Some parts of the python api expect __main__ module dictionary to be the namespace when executing a script, this is true when running a python script from the python binary but NOT true when running a compiled script from the C/API which can lead to bugs which are not easy to solve unless the C/API author knows this. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation files: doc_py3_main_mod.diff keywords: patch messages: 112706 nosy: docs@python, ideasman42 priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Python C/API Execution namespace undocumented.
