Create a module z.py whose contents are:
#z.py
import sys
import imp
sys.stdout = None
try:
y = imp.load_source('x.y', 'x/y.py', open('x/y.py'))
except:
raise
else:
print "printing should raise an AttributeError, but doesn't"
#end of listing for z.py
Create a module x/y.py whose contents are: (x/__init__.py not required)
#x/y.py
import sys
#end of listing for x/y.py
Running z.py in Python 2.3 and 2.4 produces:
printing should raise an AttributeError, but doesn't
Running z.py in Python 2.5b2 produces:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "test.py", line 7, in <module>
y = imp.load_source('x.y', 'x/y.py', open('x/y.py'))
File "x/y.py", line 1, in <module>
import sys
SystemError: Parent module 'x' not loaded
