Example: a.py AExport = object() b.py from a import AExport class Object(object): pass BExport = Object() BExport.a = AExport interpreter session: >>> import b >>> b.AExport <object object at 0x009804A8> >>> b.BExport.a <object object at 0x009804A8> >>> import a >>> a.AExport <object object at 0x009804A8> >>> "changed a.py such that AExport = list()" 'changed a.py such that AExport = list()' >>> reload(b) <module 'b' from 'b.pyc'> >>> b.AExport <object object at 0x009804A8> >>> "note no change" 'note no change' >>> reload(a) <module 'a' from 'a.py'> >>> b.AExport <object object at 0x009804A8> >>> "note still no change" 'note still no change' >>> reload(b) <module 'b' from 'b.pyc'> >>> b.AExport [] >>> "now its changed" 'now its changed' >>> b.BExport.a [] >>> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
