Éric Araujo <mer...@netwok.org> added the comment: FYI, here is code that can handle arbitrary dotted names: <http://svn.eby-sarna.com/Importing/peak/util/imports.py?view=markup>. I haven’t checked if its error reporting has the problem we’re discussing in this report.
An alternative would be to use colon notation, e.g. package.submodule:Thing.Nested.attribute. My preference is still for find_object, using dots and with the nesting prohibition. ---------- nosy: +erik.bray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12703> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
