Hi all,
I am going to do my best to describe the issue that I am having and
hopefully someone can shed some light on it:
I have three modules that a comprising the problem:
./core.py
./log.py
./resources/simple/__init__.py
core.py looks something like this (simplified version):
import log
class Core:
def __init__ (self):
self.logger = log.Logger ("core", log.ERROR,
"/home/logs/log")
try:
module = __import__ ("resources.simple",globals
(), locals (), ["simple"])
except ImportError:
print "Error importing"
self.rs = module.Resource ()
resources/simple/__init__.py look like this (again, simplified version):
import log
class Resource:
def __init__ (self):
self.logger = log.Logger ("resource", log.ERROR)
and finally, log.py:
import logging
global_info = [None, None, None]
def Logger (name, level, filename=None):
global global_info
print global_info
if not global_info[0] and not global_info[1]:
global_info[0] = name
global_info[1] = level
global_info[2] = filename
logging.basicConfig (level, format=...)
else:
if filename:
print "ERROR: logger already initialized"
return logging.getLogger (name)
The problem that I am seeing is that 'global_info' in the log.py module
is [None, None, None] on both calls of log.Logger (), even though the
initial call (from core.py) sets it to the passed in values.
According to the Python documentation, I am using the __import__
statement correctly to get what I want? It seems like, the guts of the
import/__import__ code are creating two different namespaces for the
log.py module.
(if you are wondering why I am using __import__ in my class
constructor, it is because the name of the module that should be
imported is read out of a configuration file).
Could someone help with what could be going wrong here?
