Hello all,

I'm experimenting with the Pyc sample and compiling packages into a single assembly.

It works fine for packages (great!) - but not for their *contained* subpackages.

When I look at the generated assembly with Reflector, the 'DLRCachedCode' does contain the subpackage 'files' (including the '__init__.py') - but importing from the subpackage fails.

Is this expected or a bug?

The command line I use is:

ipy pyc.py /out:modules /target:dll package\__init__.py package\module1.py package\module2.py package\subpackage\__init__.py package\subpackage\module1.py

The '__init__.py' are all empty and the modules each contain a single print statement plus a single value. My top level file (left as pure Python) is:

   import clr
   clr.AddReference('modules')

   import package.module1
   import package.module2
   import package.subpackage.module1

   print package.module1.value
   print package.module2.value
   print package.subpackage.module1.value

It fails on the subpackage import:

   Imported package module 1
   Imported package module 2
   Traceback (most recent call last):
     File "C:\Dev\Pyc\test.py", line 6, in C:\Dev\Pyc\test.py
   ImportError: cannot import subpackage from package

*Should* this work? It would be nice if it did - because otherwise we are restricted to one assembly per package, and have to add a reference to all these assemblies.

The way I've been doing this is with 'Assembly.LoadFile' in the '__init__.py' - which works but is a little 'inelegant'.

Michael
