Rightly so.
I think the best would be to add the directory to sys.path
sys.path.add('/home/dsp/4.6.0.0')
and then
__import__('test', ... )
I see. My problem is that a have to import 2 different files having de
same name. In the same name space I have 2 objects from 2 different
software branches, let's say 4.6.0 and 4.6.1.
The first object shall import 4.6.0/orb.py and the second one 4.6.1/orb.py.
If I add 4.6.1 to sys.path, the import statement will look like:
self._orb = __import__('orb')
The problem is, python wil assume orb is already imported and will
assign the module from the 4.6.0 branch to my 4.6.1 object.
Do I have to mess up with sys.modules keys to make python import the
correct file ? Is there a standard/proper way to do that ?
If you make the directory names into proper identifiers like v460 and
v461 and add __init__.py to each to make them packages and have both on
search path, then
import v460.orb #or import v460.orb as orb460
import v461.orb #or import v460.orb as orb461
will get you both. One way or another, they have to get different names
within Python.
