Hi all, this is possibly a python-dev question but I'll ask here first. Situation: I work on an application that takes 10-20 seconds to startup plus opening a document. To avoid having to restart the entire application each edit-debug cycle we rely heavily on the reload command. A typical method in our command dispatcher looks like this:
def edit_something(self, something): reload(meshDialogModule) dlg = meshDialogModule.MeshDialog(self.app, something) dlg.run() when the application is built into an exe the reload function is redefined to lambda x: x. The advantage of this is that every time I open a dialog my latest changes are applied and the debug cycle is: edit code -> open dialog - > test -> close dialog -> edit code, which is many times faster than restarting the app and opening a project each time. Question: I am told to use the exec() statement instead. I don't see how I can use exec to reload a module. Cheers Tim -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
