Hi everybody, I'm trying to fix the packaging of a very simple package, but some problem show me that I have not well understood the whole mechanism
The structure of my package (some debug functions) is as follows: python/ `-- dbg/ |-- __init__.py `-- lib |-- __init__.py |-- debug.py `-- gtk_dbg.py my sys.path includes 'python' and I wanted that the content of debug.py was simply included by: 'import dbg', so I wrote dbg/__init__.py as follows: import os Dir = os.path.dirname(__file__) __path__ = [os.path.join(Dir, 'lib')] from debug import * It seems to work: python$ python -c 'import dbg; print dir(dbg)' ['DBG', 'Dir', '__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', \ '__path__', 'caller', 'debug', 'dshow', 'os', 're', 'show_caller', \ 'sql_debug', 'sys'] BUT, if I set some variables they are not correctly seen: import dbg dbg.DBG = 1 function test included in debug.py raises NameError: def test(): print DBG NameError: global name 'DBG' is not defined` What's happening? DBG seems to be set, as shown by dir(dbg)... any hints? I'd also accept a hint for a different approch, if it's the case, but I'd really would also understant this issue Thanks in advance sandro *:-) -- Sandro Dentella *:-) http://www.tksql.org TkSQL Home page - My GPL work -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
