Bases: contextlib.AbstractContextManager

Protect against imports in a context that could segfault when imported in the wrong OS.

This context manager provides two things:

  1. Conditional imports based on platform (platform.system()).

  2. Exception handling and logging.

__enter__() → conditional_import_shield

When we enter the context, check if we are running on the right platform.

If we are not on the right platform, we temporarily sabotage the module’s import system.

__exit__(exctype: type[BaseException] | None, excinst: BaseException | None, exctb: types.TracebackType | None) → bool

When we exit the context, unsabotage the import system and log any exceptions.
