Hi, I am little shaky with how exactly python imports packages / modules etc.
Is it possible to import a module from a packet without importing its __init__.py ? Full example: ============== # application.py --------------------- print "starting application" import mypacket.module1 # mypacket.__init__.py --------------------- print "importing __init__" # mypacket.module1.py --------------------- print "importing module1" The output, that I get with python 2.6 is $ python application.py > starting application > importing __init__ > importing module1 Under certain circumstances I'd like to avoid the implicit import of __init__.py Due to other constrains of my project I am obliged to have a non empty __init__.py -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
