Re: imports in __init__.py

2009-12-18 Thread Phil
I wrote my last message late last night. When I said "I am unable to import a module from the package without an import error.", I did mean the 'modulename' module. However, I just set up a Debian VM with Python 2.5.2 and what I was trying to do works. So it is either something that changed with P

I left one crucial detail out. My concern was the fact that the original headers list being wrapped ('list' in my example) is not being updated. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Propagate import for all modules in a package.

2009-07-17 Thread Phil
I'm really new to Python and I am absolutely stumped trying to figure this out. I have searched plenty, but I am either searching for the wrong keywords or this isn't possible. What I want to do is have one import be global for the entire package. Here is an example... __init__.py module1.py

Thanks to both of you for the fast and detailed responses. I will just treat the package for what it is, a namespace. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

__import__(x) VS __import__(x, {}, {}, [''])

2009-08-23 Thread Phil
I am trying to understand the difference between __import__(x) and __import__(x, {}, {}, ['']). The documentations wording was a bit weird for me to understand: "The standard implementation does not use its locals argument at all, and uses its globals only to determine the package context of the i

Python on the Web

2009-08-25 Thread Phil
I've seen lots of web sites explaining everything, but for whatever reason I seem to not be picking something up. I am a graphical person, which is probably the reason I haven't found my answer. May somebody please confirm if my diagram accurately represents the stack, generally speaking. http://i

Thank you for the helpful and timely response. My interest in Python 3.1 was actually to develop a framework. Again, I can feel the flames. :) I understand there are enough frameworks but I actually have no applications that I wish to develop. I enjoy developing these kinds of things from scratch

Thanks to everybody. I believe I am understanding things better. I have looked at the links that have been provided, although I have seen most of them in the past month or so that I've been looking into this stuff. I do agree with most of the things Armin stated in that NIH post. I agree with ever

Thanks a lot for another response. I've never posted in groups like this before but the results are amazing. I will definitely consider trying mod_wsgi when I get a chance. I like the approach taken with it. It is unfortunate that I completely missed all Apache related material because I was using

Haha. While I don't disagree with you, I seem to be under the impression that you think I haven't been reading the web where nearly every blog post complains about the abundance of Python frameworks. The thing is, most of the frameworks being commented on in such a way are 'microframeworks' that pr

maxlen=0 - this consumes the iterator with constant memory usage. We are of course firmly in the twilight zone at this point (although this can be a useful technique in general).
