In module.c in Julia sources I see "jl_set_current_module()" function. Is it somehow exposed to Julia API?
To give you some context, in Common Lisp (as well as some other dialects) there are 2 separate macros for dealing with packages (analogue of modules in Julia): defpackage - defines new package and switches to it in-package - simply switches to specified package One great feature that these macros bring is ability to easily switch context of execution. E.g. in REPL (code simplified): ;; initially working from cl-user package cl-user> (defpackage foo (:use :common-lisp)) ;; automatically switched to new package foo> (defvar x 1) X foo> x 1 foo> (in-package :cl-user) foo> x ;; error: x not defined in :cl-user This is extremely helpful for both - package extension and debugging/interactive development. E.g. we can switch to a module in question and get all internal variables visible, play around in that context and go back to main package without stopping REPL. So I'm wondering if something like this is possible in Julia at all.
