7 | This module provides a duplicate interface to the \refmodule{thread}
|
---|
8 | module. It is meant to be imported when the \refmodule{thread} module
|
---|
9 | is not provided on a platform.
|
---|
10 |
|
---|
11 | Suggested usage is:
|
---|
12 |
|
---|
13 | \begin{verbatim}
|
---|
14 | try:
|
---|
15 | import thread as _thread
|
---|
16 | except ImportError:
|
---|
17 | import dummy_thread as _thread
|
---|
18 | \end{verbatim}
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | Be careful to not use this module where deadlock might occur from a thread
|
---|
21 | being created that blocks waiting for another thread to be created. This
|
---|
22 | often occurs with blocking I/O.
