Hello, Does site.py provide a reliable means to reinitialize sys.path of a running process?
I see that Python 2.7 added site.getsitepackages() which gives the paths needed to reinitialize explicitly, but it appears that virtualenv's site.py does not include this change. https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv/blob/5b904f88583d40954701c5471527fc07c7ae9056/virtualenv_embedded/site.py To give some context, I'm interested in code reloading inside virtualenvs on production systems where I would like to reduce downtime to 0. Packages installed as non-zip eggs are added to a .pth file, and attempts to reload(module) or even __import__ in a child process do not get the new code since sys.path is still pointing at the old paths given at the time the .pth file was read. Thanks, Ron _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
