So, if we want it to work for both new and older versions of IPython,
we could use the following:
#
==================================================================================
try:
import IPython
if IPython.__version__ >= '0.11':
from IPython.frontend.terminal.embed import
InteractiveShellEmbed
shell = InteractiveShellEmbed(user_ns=_env)
shell()
return
else:
# following 2 lines fix a problem with
IPython; thanks Michael Toomim
if '__builtins__' in _env:
del _env['__builtins__']
shell = IPython.Shell.IPShell(argv=[],
user_ns=_env)
shell.mainloop()
return
except:
logger.warning(
'import IPython error; use default python
shell')
#
==================================================================================
I'm a little uncomfortable doing a compare greater than or equal on
a string, but it seems to work.
An alternative is to require IPython version 0.11 or later, but
I suppose that is a bit severe.
