Brett Cannon <br...@python.org> added the comment: Yeah, having to pass in the name to load_module is silly. I'm seriously considering making it optional for some loaders when the name was passed in to the constructor.
One thing I would like to see is that PathFinder take a new, keyword-only argument of 'namespace_loader' or something that takes an object which is called with the module name and the list of paths to use for __path__ (and thus __path__[0] becomes __file__). That way it can be controlled by users if desired. I'm also fine with it having a default value of NamespaceLoader to start since I don't see people needing to comprehend what they are allowing in this case as I do for general file loaders. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14660> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
