Well, you have a circular import here that may cause you problems. Neither
module could finish loading because it depends on the other being imported which
depends on the other being imported which depends on the other being imported
....
But, this could work:
a.py:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 'some local value'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
b.py:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 'some other local value'
def print_a_x():
import a
print a.x # prints 'some local value'
def print_x():
print x # prints 'some other local value'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this helps.
