Short answer: you can't. And yes, it's a "smell" (a bad one) if you want to achieve this.
You have to somehow break the cycle : * maybe acknowledge that ns a & b are strongly coupled since there's the need for a cyclic dependency, and merge them. * sometimes one wants to have a & b to have things in different files. You can just (load) one from the other to include its content into the same namespace, but still have the namespace separated into several files. * maybe move the common parts of a and be into a third namespace c * ... Maybe if you give more info concerning your particular case, ... HTH, -- Laurent 2010/1/24 Gabi <bugspy...@gmail.com>: > This thing is driving me nuts.
