# TODO

#
|
|
# from Finn Bock:
|
|
# type(sys) is not a module in Jython. what to use instead?
|
|
# imp.C_EXTENSION is not in Jython. same for get_suffixes and new_module
|
|
#
|
|
# given foo.py of:
|
|
# import sys
|
|
# sys.modules['foo'] = sys
|
|
#
|
|
# ---- standard import mechanism
|
|
# >>> import foo
|
|
# >>> foo
|
|
# <module 'sys' (built-in)>
|

#
|
|
# ---- revamped import mechanism

|
|
# >>> foo
|
|
# <module 'foo' from 'foo.py'>
|
|
#
|
|
#
|
|
# from MAL:
|
|
# should BuiltinImporter exist in sys.path or hard-wired in ImportManager?
|
|
# need __path__ processing
|
|
# performance
|
|
# move chaining to a subclass [gjs: it's been nuked]
|
|
# deinstall should be possible
|
|
# query mechanism needed: is a specific Importer installed?
|
|
# py/pyc/pyo piping hooks to filter/process these files
|
|
# wish list:
|
|
# distutils importer hooked to list of standard Internet repositories
|
|
# module->file location mapper to speed FS-based imports
|
|
# relative imports
|
|
# keep chaining so that it can play nice with other import hooks
|
|
#
|
|
# from Gordon:
|
|
# push MAL's mapper into sys.path[0] as a cache (hard-coded for apps)
|
|
#
|
|
# from Guido:
|
|
# need to change sys.* references for rexec environs
|
|
# need hook for MAL's walk-me-up import strategy, or Tim's absolute strategy
|
|
# watch out for sys.modules[...] is None
|
|
# flag to force absolute imports? (speeds _determine_import_context and
|
|
# checking for a relative module)
|
|
# insert names of archives into sys.path (see quote below)
|
|
# note: reload does NOT blast module dict
|
|
# shift import mechanisms and policies around; provide for hooks, overrides
|
|
# (see quote below)
|
|
# add get_source stuff
|
|
# get_topcode and get_subcode
|
|
# CRLF handling in _compile
|
|
# race condition in _compile
|
|
# refactoring of os.py to deal with _os_bootstrap problem
|
|
# any special handling to do for importing a module with a SyntaxError?
|
|
# (e.g. clean up the traceback)
|
|
# implement "domain" for path-type functionality using pkg namespace
|
|
# (rather than FS-names like __path__)
|
|
# don't use the word "private"... maybe "internal"
|
|
#
|
|
#
|
|
# Guido's comments on sys.path caching:
|
|
#
|
|
# We could cache this in a dictionary: the ImportManager can have a
|
|
# cache dict mapping pathnames to importer objects, and a separate
|
|
# method for coming up with an importer given a pathname that's not yet
|
|
# in the cache. The method should do a stat and/or look at the
|
|
# extension to decide which importer class to use; you can register new
|
|
# importer classes by registering a suffix or a Boolean function, plus a
|
|
# class. If you register a new importer class, the cache is zapped.
|
|
# The cache is independent from sys.path (but maintained per
|
|
# ImportManager instance) so that rearrangements of sys.path do the
|
|
# right thing. If a path is dropped from sys.path the corresponding
|
|
# cache entry is simply no longer used.
|
|
#
|
|
# My/Guido's comments on factoring ImportManager and Importer:
|
|
#
|
|
# > However, we still have a tension occurring here:
|
|
# >
|
|
# > 1) implementing policy in ImportManager assists in single-point policy
|
|
# > changes for app/rexec situations
|
|
# > 2) implementing policy in Importer assists in package-private policy
|
|
# > changes for normal, operating conditions
|
|
# >
|
|
# > I'll see if I can sort out a way to do this. Maybe the Importer class will
|
|
# > implement the methods (which can be overridden to change policy) by
|
|
# > delegating to ImportManager.
|
|
#
|
|
# Maybe also think about what kind of policies an Importer would be
|
|
# likely to want to change. I have a feeling that a lot of the code
|
|
# there is actually not so much policy but a *necessity* to get things
|
|
# working given the calling conventions for the __import__ hook: whether
|
|
# to return the head or tail of a dotted name, or when to do the "finish
|
|
# fromlist" stuff.
