Hello,
I found this bit in my inbox, I forgot why I cared about it, but it raises an exception (at least on Windows):
>>> import multiprocessing
>>> p = multiprocessing.Process(target=bytes.maketrans, args=(b'abc', b'xyz'))
>>> p.start()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python32\Lib\pickle.py", line 679, in save_global
klass = getattr(mod, name)
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'maketrans'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):

_pickle.PicklingError: Can't pickle <built-in function maketrans>: it's not found as __main__.maketrans
If you do the same things with `threading.Thread`, it works, but for `multiprocessing.Process` it doesn't. Is this a general problem with pickling "unbound methods"? |
