Re: [Webware-discuss] Mapping URIs to multiple sources of code

[Bill E. <bi...@rf...>]

Perhaps I'm a bit not understanding the issue, but...

Is it possibly to pass in a class reference as one
of the parameters and import it in a new namespace,
such as:

def myimport(baseClassName):
   lt=time.strftime('%Y%m%d%H%M%S',time.localtime(time.time()))
   exec('import baseClassName as baseClass'+lt)

and destroy the class if you don't want it to persist.
I think this should load much faster if it's already
a globally available class.

You can also use the imp module for:

args=imp.find_module('os')
if args:
   myos=imp.load_module(['os']+list(args))
else:
   ...

You can also use the imp module in the previous section
to reload rather than simply load, so I think it checks
for changes in the baseClass.
