So, it turns out that reload() fails if the module being reloaded isn't in sys.path.
Maybe it could fall back to module.__file__ if the module isn't found in sys.path?? ... or reload could just take an optional path parameter... Or perhaps I'm the only one who thinks this is silly: >>> my_module = imp.load_module(module_name, *imp.find_module(module_name,path)) >>> reload(my_module) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? ImportError: No module named whatever I guess I could just deal with this by fiddling with sys.path or using imp.load_module again, but.. um.. I like to complain. ;-) The context here is that I'm loading user-defined modules as plugins, and I don't want to keep the plugin directory in sys.path because of potential module name conflicts. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
