I wrote module1 in package1, and want to use a method named 'method1' in module1, the caller(test.py) is like this:
import package1 package1.module1.method1() module1.py is like this: def method1(): print 'method1 run!' The filesystem structure is: test.py package1 |__ __init__.py |__ module1.py When i run test.py, the output is: AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'module1' File "e:\MyDoc\GODU_BVT\test.py", line 2, in <module> package1.module1.method1() If test.py is modified to: import package1.module1 ... then everything goes well. Python documentation said: "Contrarily, when using syntax like import item.subitem.subsubitem, each item except for the last must be a package; the last item can be a module or a package but can’t be a class or function or variable defined in the previous item." Obviously we can import a package besides a module, so i don't know why the "import package1" style does not work. Above codes tested on python 2.6.6, windows xp sp2. Thanks for explanations :) _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
