:mod:`dummy_threading` --- Drop-in replacement for the :mod:`threading` module
.. module:: dummy_threading :synopsis: Drop-in replacement for the threading module.
Source code: :source:`Lib/dummy_threading.py`
This module provides a duplicate interface to the :mod:`threading` module. It is meant to be imported when the :mod:`thread` module is not provided on a platform.
Suggested usage is:
try: import threading as _threading except ImportError: import dummy_threading as _threading
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.
