Hi, I'm one of the developers of www.pyinstaller.org, a tool for creating stand-alone executables.
We need to reliable detect if a package is a namespace package (nspkg). For each namespace, we need to add an empty fake-module into our executable to keep the import mechanism working. This has to work in all versions of Python starting with 2.4. nspkgs set up via a nspkg.pth-file are detected by being in sys.modules, but imp.find_module() files. For nspkgs using __init__.py-files (which use pkg_resources.declare_namespace() or pkgutil.extend_path()) I have no clue how to detect them. I tried to query meta-information using pkgresources, but I did not find a solution. Any help? -- Regards Hartmut Goebel | Hartmut Goebel | h.goe...@crazy-compilers.com | | www.crazy-compilers.com | compilers which you thought are impossible | _______________________________________________ Distutils-SIG maillist - Distutils-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/distutils-sig
