16.4. dummy_threading — Drop-in replacement for the threading module
This module provides a duplicate interface to the threading module. It is meant to be imported when the thread module is not provided on a platform.
Suggested usage is:
try:
import threading as _threading
except ImportError:
import dummy_threading as _threading
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.
