@ -258,88 +258,6 @@ to indicate the search result of :func:`find_module`.
The module was found as a frozen module (see :func:`init_frozen`).
The following constant and functions are obsolete; their functionality is
available through :func:`find_module` or :func:`load_module`. They are kept
around for backward compatibility:
.. data:: SEARCH_ERROR
Unused.
.. function:: init_builtin(name)
Initialize the built-in module called *name* and return its module object along
with storing it in ``sys.modules``. If the module was already initialized, it
will be initialized *again*. Re-initialization involves the copying of the
built-in module's ``__dict__`` from the cached module over the module's entry in
``sys.modules``. If there is no built-in module called *name*, ``None`` is
returned.
.. function:: init_frozen(name)
Initialize the frozen module called *name* and return its module object. If
the module was already initialized, it will be initialized *again*. If there
is no frozen module called *name*, ``None`` is returned. (Frozen modules are
modules written in Python whose compiled byte-code object is incorporated
into a custom-built Python interpreter by Python's :program:`freeze`
utility. See :file:`Tools/freeze/` for now.)
.. function:: is_builtin(name)
Return ``1`` if there is a built-in module called *name* which can be
initialized again. Return ``-1`` if there is a built-in module called *name*
which cannot be initialized again (see :func:`init_builtin`). Return ``0`` if
there is no built-in module called *name*.
.. function:: is_frozen(name)
Return ``True`` if there is a frozen module (see :func:`init_frozen`) called
*name*, or ``False`` if there is no such module.
.. function:: load_compiled(name, pathname, [file])
.. index:: pair: file; byte-code
Load and initialize a module implemented as a byte-compiled code file and return
its module object. If the module was already initialized, it will be
initialized *again*. The *name* argument is used to create or access a module
object. The *pathname* argument points to the byte-compiled code file. The
*file* argument is the byte-compiled code file, open for reading in binary mode,
from the beginning. It must currently be a real file object, not a user-defined
class emulating a file.
.. function:: load_dynamic(name, pathname[, file])
Load and initialize a module implemented as a dynamically loadable shared
library and return its module object. If the module was already initialized, it
will be initialized *again*. Re-initialization involves copying the ``__dict__``
attribute of the cached instance of the module over the value used in the module
cached in ``sys.modules``. The *pathname* argument must point to the shared
library. The *name* argument is used to construct the name of the
initialization function: an external C function called ``initname()`` in the
shared library is called. The optional *file* argument is ignored. (Note:
using shared libraries is highly system dependent, and not all systems support
it.)
.. function:: load_source(name, pathname[, file])
Load and initialize a module implemented as a Python source file and return its
module object. If the module was already initialized, it will be initialized
*again*. The *name* argument is used to create or access a module object. The
*pathname* argument points to the source file. The *file* argument is the
source file, open for reading as text, from the beginning. It must currently be
a real file object, not a user-defined class emulating a file. Note that if a
properly matching byte-compiled file (with suffix :file:`.pyc` or :file:`.pyo`)
exists, it will be used instead of parsing the given source file.
