.. module:: dummy_threading
|
:synopsis: Drop-in replacement for the threading module.
|
|
**Source code:** :source:`Lib/dummy_threading.py`
|
|
.. deprecated:: 3.7
|
Python now always has threading enabled. Please use :mod:`threading` instead.
|
|
--------------
|
|
This module provides a duplicate interface to the :mod:`threading` module.
|
It was meant to be imported when the :mod:`_thread` module was not provided
|
on a platform.
|
|
Be careful to not use this module where deadlock might occur from a thread being
|
created that blocks waiting for another thread to be created. This often occurs
|
with blocking I/O.
