RE: [Python-Dev] unicode character name patch status

From: Greg Stein [mailto:gstein@lyra.org]

I'm with MAL. Use Python's import mechanism. That gets you the dynamic load stuff no problem. It *also* handles the case where the module is statically linked.

Ok, ok, so much for the idea about modifying as few lines as possible in my patch. :)

If you go play games with the dynload stuff, then it would be a bitch to build a single, statically-linked executable.

Nah, thats what the config.h hAVE_... for dynamic load support #define is for. :) Bill
