Intrepreter arguments #2688
Description
Is there already any way to pass arguments to the embedded Interpreter / PythonEngine?
For example -B to avoid bytecode or -Xmodules_freeze=off to avoid frozen modules?
Py.SetArgv() and PythonEngine.Initialize() pass arguments to sys.argv, but in case of -B, bytecode is created anyway.
Best regards
Andreas

See https://docs.python.org/3.14/c-api/init_config.html.
I commented on a similar issue here #2664 (comment).
There is currently no implementation for any of the config APIs (
PyPreConfig,PyConfig,PyInitConfig), any addition would be appreciated. The "FFI-friendly" one,PyInitConfig, is only available in Python 3.14, though (for which we really need to get the release out of the door... :/).IsegrimDerGraue commentedon Feb 19, 2026
ah ... pity ...
In case of -B the flag can be set in script. But i found no workaround for the frozen modules yet.
Nevertheless ... thanks.
