"Yes" and "I guess". =) I can see the filename to check a module useful for stuff like PyChecker. But for a string of code, I don't think it would be that critical; if you provide a way to get the AST for a code object you can just pass the string to compile() and then get the AST from there. > Hmm, it would be nice to give a function a module > name (like from an import statement) and have Python resolve it using > the normal sys.path iteration. > Yep, import path -> filename path would be cool. -Brett _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
