Erik Bray added the comment: Put another way, the cache associated with a FileFinder only keeps track of the filenames in a directory, and not their individual mtimes. So if a new file is added to the directory the cache should be invalided. Likewise if a file is removed.
If a file is modified or removed and a new file with the same name subsequently added this is irrelevant to the cache. Importing that module will still succeed if it hasn't already been imported. If that module's file is *not* in the cache then an ImportError is raised. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17330> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
