A Python ‘import’ is conceptually two steps: execute the module, then bind the objects that were created to names in a namespace. The import mechanism has a short-cut: if the module has already been imported by this Python VM, the module isn't executed again, and the existing objects are simply re-used with new bindings as necessary. What you want is to specifically request the module to be re-executed to re-create the objects again, and re-bind the existing name bindings to the objects that result. >>> help(reload) -- \ “I hope that after I die, people will say of me: ‘That guy sure | `\ owed me a lot of money’.” —Jack Handey | _o__) | Ben Finney -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
