I think this sounds like a stupid question, but I searched the C/Api doc and google but I wasn't able to find any hint:how can I retrive PyObject pointer if I only know it's name? What I'd like to do is something like this: [code] PyObject* obj = PyFindWhatImLookingFor("w.z.y.x"); [/code] Of course if I know that w is a module, z is a class and so on I can search w dictionary than z members than... But I wonder if there is a way to retrive without knowing what w.z.y.x means.
There is probably a clever/careful way to do it, but most systems that do this just separate the package/module parts from the object parts:
"w:z.y.x" Import the module part, then getattr() your way down the object part. -- Robert Kern "I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth." -- Umberto Eco -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
