New submission from kota <nospam.kotarou.d...@gmail.com>: There seems to be a wrong import module search order (http://docs.python.org/tutorial/modules.html#the-module-search-path) on Windows. Python seems to be loading the built-in module instead of the python code with the same name as the module in the current directory. This only happens on Windows as I tested on Linux and it loaded the module properly.
Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a file named `parser.py' containing `print "test"' 2. Open a console window to the directory you created the file in and run `python2.7 -v' or `python -v' 3. Type `import parser' On Windows, I get this output: import encodings.cp437 # from c:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp437.py # wrote c:\Python27\lib\encodings\cp437.pyc import parser # builtin On Linux, I get this: import parser # from parser.py # wrote parser.pyc test `sys.path' on Windows: ['', 'C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\python27.zip', 'c:\\Python27\\DLLs', 'c:\\Python27\\lib', 'c:\\Python27\\lib\\plat-win', 'c:\\Python27\\lib\\lib-tk', 'c:\\Python27', 'c:\\Python27\ \lib\\site-packages'] `sys.path' on Linux: ['', '/usr/lib/python2.7', '/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL', '/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gst-0.10', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7'] ---------- components: None messages: 141288 nosy: kota priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Wrong import module search order on Windows type: behavior versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12648> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
