Loading both `juliacall` and `pyjulia` triggers crash #440

Open MilesCranmer opened 5 months ago

MilesCranmer commented 5 months ago

I would not expect this to work anyways but just wanted to point it out:

[ins] In [1]: from julia import Main as pyjulia_jl

[ins] In [2]: from juliacall import Main as juliacall_jl
Fatal Python error: PyThreadState_Get: the function must be called with the GIL held, but the GIL is released (the current Python thread state is NULL)
Python runtime state: initialized

This will not be an issue if everyone moves to juliacall, but the transition period where some packages use PyCall (like PyPlot) and some packages use PythonCall may cause some of these issues.

Maybe there is a safety switch to get around this issue temporarily.

cjdoris commented 5 months ago

Yeah we should at least check for this and issue a better error message (like we do in PythonCall).

MilesCranmer commented 5 months ago

Maybe we could do it similarly to how PyTorch is handled

But not sure if it needs to also be checked on the PythonCall.jl/PyCall.jl side?
