Taken from www.python.org, FAQ 2.3 How do I share global variables across modules?
config.py: x = 0 # Default value of the 'x' configuration setting mod.py: import config config.x = 1 main.py: import config # try removing it import mod print config.x The example, such as shown in the website, works perfectly well. However, I don't fully understand why I have to import config in main.py, since it has already been imported by mod.py. As the website explains, there is only one module namespace for each module, and mod.py has aleady created the config namespace by importing it. Why should I import it again in main.py if that namespace already exists? If I remove -> import config # try removing it in main.py, the application does not run What am I missing? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
