Hi All, I want to reload my Module after I fix bugs and want to instantiate an object of a class contained in this module. Heres the pseudo code of what I want to do: def rerun(testBlock) : op = testBlock.split('.') module = op[0] ; className = op[1] reload(module) # testBlock is a string, so it needs evaluation! newObject = testBlock() rerun('ModuleName.className') Obviously, line 4 and line 6 dont work today. I want to know if there is any smart way to achieve this. In my previous life (Tcl), I could use 'eval' or 'set' to achieve this.
Untested: def rerun(testBlock): modulename, classname = testBlock.split('.') module = __import__(modulename) reload(module) classobj = getattr(module, classname) return classobj() -- Steven _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
