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