"""Prototype of 'import' functionality enhanced to implement packages.

Why packages?  Packages enable module nesting and sibling module
imports.  'Til now, the python module namespace was flat, which
means every module had to have a unique name, in order to not
conflict with names of other modules on the load path.  Furthermore,
suites of modules could not be structurally affiliated with one
another.

With packages, a suite of, eg, email-oriented modules can include a
module named 'mailbox', without conflicting with the, eg, 'mailbox'
module of a shared-memory suite - 'email.mailbox' vs
'shmem.mailbox'.  Packages also enable modules within a suite to
load other modules within their package without having the package
name hard-coded.  Similarly, package suites of modules can be loaded
as a unit, by loading the package that contains them.

Usage: once installed (newimp.install(); newimp.revert() to revert to
the prior __import__ routine), 'import ...' and 'from ... import ...'
can be used to:

  - import modules from the search path, as before.

  - import modules from within other directory "packages" on the search
    path using a '.' dot-delimited nesting syntax.  The nesting is fully
    recursive.

    For example, 'import test.test_types' will import the test_types
    module within the 'test' package.  The calling environment would
    then access the module as 'test.test_types', which is the name of
    the fully-loaded 'test_types' module.  It is found contained within
    the stub (ie, only partially loaded) 'test' module, hence accessed as
    'test.test_types'.

  - import siblings from modules within a package, using '__.' as a shorthand
    prefix to refer to the parent package.  This enables referential
    transparency - package modules need not know their package name.

    The '__' package references are actually names assigned within
    modules, to refer to their containing package.  This means that
    variable references can be made to imported modules, or to variables
    defined via 'import ... from', also using the '__.var' shorthand
    notation.  This establishes a proper equivalence between the import
    reference '__.sibling' and the var reference '__.sibling'.  

  - import an entire package as a unit, by importing the package directory.
    If there is a module named '__init__.py' in the package, it controls the
    load.  Otherwise, all the modules in the dir, including packages, are
    inherently loaded into the package module's namespace.

    For example, 'import test' will load the modules of the entire 'test'
    package, at least until a test failure is encountered.

    In a package, a module with the name '__init__' has a special role.
    If present in a package directory, then it is loaded into the package
    module, instead of loading the contents of the directory.  This
    enables the __init__ module to control the load, possibly loading
    the entire directory deliberately (using 'import __', or even
    'from __ import *', to load all the module contents directly into the
    package module).

  - perform any combination of the above - have a package that contains
    packages, etc.

Modules have a few new attributes in support of packages.  As mentioned
above, '__' is a shorthand attribute denoting the modules' parent package,
also denoted in the module by '__package__'.  Additionally, modules have
associated with them a '__pkgpath__', a path by which sibling modules are
found."""

# $Id$ First release:
# Ken.Manheimer@nist.gov, 5-Apr-1995, for python 1.2

# Issues (scattered in code - search for three asterisks)
# *** Despite my efforts, 'reload(newimp)' will foul things up.
# *** Normalize_pathname will only work for Unix - which we need to detect.
# *** when a module with the name of the platform (as indicated by
#     to-be-created var sys.platform), the package path gets '.' and the
#     platform dir.
# *** use sys.impadmin for things like an import load-hooks var
# *** Import-load-hook keying module name versus package path, which dictates
#     additions to the default ('.' and os-specific dir) path
# *** Document that the __init__.py can set __.__pkgpath__, in which case that
#     will be used for the package-relative loads.
# *** Add a 'recursive' option to reload, for reload of package constituent
#     modules (including subpackages), as well.  Or maybe that should be the
#     default, and eg stub-completion should override that default.  ???

# Developers Notes:
#
# - 'sys.stub_modules' registers "incidental" (partially loaded) modules.
#   A stub module is promoted to the fully-loaded 'sys.modules' list when it is
#   explicitly loaded as a unit.
# - One load nuance - the actual load of most module types goes into the
#   already-generated stub module.  HOWEVER, eg dynamically loaded modules
#   generate a new module object, which must supplant the existing stub.  One
#   consequence is that the import process must use indirection through
#   sys.stub_modules or sys.modules to track the actual modules across some of
#   the phases.
# - The test routines are cool, including a transient directory
#   hierarchy facility, and a means of skipping to later tests by giving
#   the test routine a numeric arg.
# - There may still be some loose ends, not to mention bugs.  But the full
#   functionality should be there.
# - The ImportStack object is necessary to carry the list of in-process imports
#   across very open-ended recursions, where the state cannot be passed
#   explicitly via the import_module calls; for a primary example, via exec of
#   an 'import' statement within a module.
# - Python's (current) handling of extension modules, via imp.load_dynamic,
#   does too much, some of which needs to be undone.  See comments in
#   load_module.  Among other things, we actually change the __name__ of the
#   module, which conceivably may break something.

    The argument can be an already loaded module object or a string name of a
    loaded module or a "stub" module that was partially loaded package module
    incidental to the full load of a contained module.
    
    This is useful if you have edited the module source file using an external
    editor and want to try out the new version without leaving the Python
    interpreter.  The return value is the resulting module object.

    Contrary to the old 'reload', the load is sought from the same location
    where the module was originally found.  If you wish to do a fresh load from
    a different module on the path, do an 'unload()' and then an import.

    When a module is reloaded, its dictionary (containing the module's
    global variables) is retained.  Redefinitions of names will
    override the old definitions, so this is generally not a problem.
    If the new version of a module does not define a name that was
    defined by the old version, the old definition remains.  This
    feature can be used to the module's advantage if it maintains a
    global table or cache of objects -- with a `try' statement it can
    test for the table's presence and skip its initialization if
    desired.

    It is legal though generally not very useful to reload built-in or
    dynamically loaded modules, except for `sys', `__main__' and
    `__builtin__'.  In certain cases, however, extension modules are
    not designed to be initialized more than once, and may fail in
    arbitrary ways when reloaded.

    If a module imports objects from another module using `from' ...
    `import' ..., calling `reload()' for the other module does not
    redefine the objects imported from it -- one way around this is to
    re-execute the `from' statement, another is to use `import' and
    qualified names (MODULE.NAME) instead.

    If a module instantiates instances of a class, reloading the module
    that defines the class does not affect the method definitions of
    the instances, unless they are reinstantiated -- they continue to use the
    old class definition.  The same is true for derived classes."""
