Hello, I'm developing a small XML marshaller and I'm facing an annoying issue. Here's some sample code:
########### My test application ############ class Foo(object): #The class I'd like to serialize pass import myMarshaller foo = Foo() s = myMarshaller.dumps(foo) #works fine, spits something like <object class = "Foo"...> another_foo = loads(s) #fails, see below ########### My marshaller (in its own module) ############ def loads(s): #First, get class name (here "Foo") klass = eval(className) #fails because "Foo" is not in the marshaller's namespace ! How could I tell the marshaller to locate the Foo class and any other class I try to deserialize ? I've tried to pass my test application's globals() to the marshaller, it works but it's dirty IMHO... I've tried also to locate the class (here "Foo") somewhere in sys.modules in the "loads" method, but it was heavy and unsuccessful. Thanks a lot for your help !
