Question

Suppose I import several functions from a python module in the following way:

import module1
from module2 import *

Now, if I change one of the functions in the module1, I can just run

reload(module1)

But I can’t do the same for module2
How can I do the same for reloading all the functions in module2? Currently, I have to exit and restart iPython.

I am using Python 2.7.2

Answer 1

best advice is to not use from module2 import *…. if you don’t want to retype module2 each time, you could do something like import module2 as m2

then you can reload(m2)
