Using Python 2.6 on ubuntu 10.04. inspect module : I want to 'inspect' a module and get a list of all functions, classes and global variables in that module.
## A module has been imported, and we call `getmembers' members = inspect.getmembers(mod) ## While iterating thru `members', we test to see ## if an object is defined in the module. for m in members: obj = m[1] res = inspect.getmodule(obj) ## It appears that getmodule returns None for ## all but functions and classes. Example, for a module name `mvcInstall', when a class name `Install' that is defined in the module is passed as an argument to inspect.getmodule, the values returned is something like "<module 'mvcInstall' from '/home/tim/prj/cgi/libraries/python/mvcInstall.py'>" Likewise for functions defined in the module. ** But ** when global variables such as strings, booleans, integers are passed as an argument to getmodule, the value returned is `None'. What else can I do here? thanks -- Tim tim at johnsons-web dot com or akwebsoft dot com http://www.akwebsoft.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
