: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

.. deprecated:: 3.7 Python now always has threading enabled. Please use :mod:threading instead.


This module provides a duplicate interface to the :mod:threading module. It was meant to be imported when the :mod:_thread module was not provided on a platform.

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.
