Thanks for the suggestion from both.
I am not quite understand the above though.
I took your approach and do it like this :
local __name__
if type(package.loaded["my_module"]) ~= "userdata"
then
__name__ = "__main__"
module("my_module")
...things I write
then at the end, the pythonic way:
if __name__ == "__main__" then <self test> end
Won't this also hardcode the module name in the module
file, right there in the module() call ?
