I think this will work...
----
from ftplib import *
...
# reload code below
import ftplib
reload(ftplib)
from ftplib import *
----
That should update all the stuff that was imported by ftplib the first
time. But you'll have to call it in global space in order to update
global space.
I vaguely remember doing it before, that's how sure I am it'll work. If
you want to have a method that update's the global namespace do this...
def update():
g = globals()
import ftplib
reload(ftplib)
for key, val in ftplib.__dict__:
g[key] = val
I haven't tried that though, it's just a guess :)
