clear imported Sikuli Scripts?

Asked by Chase

How can i clear previously imported Sikuli Scripts?
Even after closing Sikuli IDE and reopening it changes to some imported scripts are not taking affect.
So i'm looking for a way to clear previously imported scripts or a way to force a new import to overwrite an old one.

Currently I have this statement in all scripts that are imported:
from sikuli.Sikuli import *
and this statement in all scripts that initiate the import:
import os
myPath = os.path.dirname(getBundlePath())
if not myPath in sys.path:
 sys.path.append(myPath)
import <Sikuli_Script>

I am running on Windows XP and have the latest Sikuli version.

Thanks!

That doesn't seem to help. Maybe i have another issue.
I receive this error:
[error] Stopped [error] An error occurs at line 12 [error] Error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\DOCUME~1\cwhitten\LOCALS~1\Temp\sikuli-tmp5956336944485410448.py", line 12, in import JN_export File "C:\Program Files\Sikuli X\sikuli-script.jar\Lib\sikuli\SikuliImporter.py", line 42, in load_module File "C:\Program Files\Sikuli X\sikuli-script.jar\Lib\sikuli\SikuliImporter.py", line 26, in _load_module ImportError: Errors in loading sikuli module: JN_export You may need to add "from sikuli.Sikuli import *" in the module. name 'setAutoWaitTimeout' is not defined

JN_export is my sikuli script. The first line has
from sikuli.Sikuli import *
I used to have 'setAutoWaitTimeout' at the begging of the Def function in. I received this error so i just deleted that line and it kept giving me this error, even after restarting the IDE and computer. If i save JN_export.sikuli to another name and impart the other name without any other changes the import works just fine but if i change the name back it gives me this error again. Out of 8 or so scripts i'm importing, i have this issue with 2 and all the rest work just fine. And of course both of the scripts that have problems work find if i change the sikuli file(folder) name.
Any ideas?

thanks!

Try to use Sikuli script names without any special characters (only characters and numbers, no underscore or such stuff).
This might be a bug.

I usually use camel casing to get some visual structure into the script names.

BTW: when you restart the IDE or run a script from command line you always start with fresh imports.

Can you help with this problem?
