New submission from Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com>: DirsOnSysPath doesn't clear sys.path_importer_cache, so it seems you'd always want to use import_state, which does clear it.
We might also want to modify import_state to remember the original objects, not just their values. DirsOnSysPath does do this, for sys.path. If we do this, we should probably move import_state to test.support. Also, couldn't import_state do with sys.modules what DirsOnSysPath does with sys.path? It could restore both the object and its contents. ---------- messages: 159873 nosy: barry, brett.cannon, eric.smith, jason.coombs priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: test.support.DirsOnSysPath should be replaced by importlib.test.util.import_state versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14715> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
