Strangeness... I was basically doing this, only I was resetting stdout
to sys.__stdout__ - and it wasn't working.
Ie, we have these three methods for setting stdout:
def paul():
sys.stdout = sys.__stdout__
def olivier():
reload(sys)
def chad():
fout = open('templog', 'w')
...then olivier and chad work, but paul does not. (...Though paul
will work AFTER olivier is run - ie, once we've reloaded sys).
To see for yourself:
http://pastebin.com/f1b77b4ae
...put that in a module, and import it... paul will fail, olivier and
chad will succeed. (Note you can only do this once per maya session:
once reload(sys) is invoked, I have no idea how to "undo" it, without
restarting maya...)
So, apparently, maya is doing something else odd in the sys module,
other than merely redirecting sys.stdout... though, for some reason,
setting sys.stdout works as far as doctest is concerned.
Since I don't know exactly WHAT maya is doing to sys (that reload(sys)
undoes), and how important it is that it stay that way, I think I'll
go with Chad's method...
Thanks both though! I had been considering hacking doctest somehow
with some commandPort socket connection... thank god I won't have to
do that. ;)
