Question

Following structure:

app.py
  /package
    __init__.py
    foo.py
    bar.py

“foo.py” and “bar.py” contains both classes “Foo” and “Bar”. Class “Foo” inherits from class “Bar”. We have following code in the files…

“app.py”:

from package import Foo

print Foo()

“__init__.py”:

from foo import Foo
from bar import Bar

“foo.py”:

class Foo(Bar):
    pass

“bar.py”:

class Bar:
    pass

If I create an instance from “Foo” I became an name error “name ‘Bar’ is not defined”. What I have to do to make it work? I am using Python 2.6.6 if it matters…

Answer 1

You need the line

from bar import Bar

in the file foo.py (not just in __init.py__).
