|

| 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.
