[Jython-users] How to "cleanse" sys.modules between sessions

[Mark M. <Mar...@ds...>]

<FONT face=3D"Default Sans Serif, Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" si=
ze=3D2><DIV>Hi,</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>I am using Jython from a Java pr=
ogram and instantiate an InteractiveConsole to work with a GUI application.=
&nbsp; The first time I instantiate the console, I import a module called "=
crap" for argument's sake.&nbsp; I later trash the console, and fire up ano=
ther one.&nbsp; The problem is - "crap" is still hanging around and is avai=
lable (although somewhat stale..) in the new console.&nbsp; Should Jython i=
t not clear out sys.modules every time?&nbsp; Is there a call to somehow "s=
hutdown" the console I am missing?&nbsp; Is there some way to "initialize" =
the interpreter every time to a known set of defaults?&nbsp; I have tried c=
alling PythonInterpreter.initialize() every time I create a console but thi=
s doesn't appear to do anything.</DIV><DIV>&nbsp;</DIV><DIV>Thanks in advan=
ce,</DIV><DIV>Mark.</DIV></FONT>=
