Subject: [capi-sig] PyImport_AppendInittab doesn't work with package and
 sub-module (Python 3.4)
Message-ID: <CA+_ahhw8_r+GZtpt0=_7YAxOq2PM30gE2dsTg+pkdqrxkn-04Q@mail.gmail.com>

I have a C++ application that I swigged to Python 2.7. I'm currently trying
to port my code from Python 2.7 to Python 3.4 using the Python/C API and
SWIG.

I have a package containing multiple modules. The problem is I cannot find
a way to initialize my module *ModuleABC* as a sub-module of package
*PackageXYZ*. It works well with Python 2.7 but not with Python 3.4 (and I
suppose it wouldn't work either with any Python 3.x version).
This code works:

PyImport_AppendInittab("ABC",
PyInit__ABC);Py_Initialize();PyImport_ImportModule("import ABC");

But not this one:

PyImport_AppendInittab("packageXYZ.ABC",
PyInit__ABC);Py_Initialize();PyImport_ImportModule("import
packageXYZ.ABC");

Any idea?
