Hi All,
Working lazy imports would be useful to have. Ralf is opposed to the idea because it caused all sorts of problems on different platforms when it was tried in scipy.
Note that my being opposed is because the benefits are smaller than the cost. If there was a better reason than shaving a couple of extra ms off the import time or being able to more cleanly deprecate modules, then of course it's possible I'd change my mind. Ralf
I thought I'd open the topic for discussion so that folks who had various problems/solutions could offer input and the common experience could be collected in one place. Perhaps there is a solution that actually works.
Ideas?
Chuck
