Getting different result for _import_() and import

[haldark]

Hello Everybody,

I am using micropython on 5100S-EVP-Pico for over a month now. I noticed a curious thing.

My directory structure is like this

When I open a system shell for the 5100S-EVP-Pico, and import devlib.motion_1601111, I get all classes as expected

When I write a py script with same commands in Thonny, and run the script, I get the same result.

BUT

Instead of import, If I use __import__() in the py script, I get very different result

In this case, all internal members of motion_1601111 module are missing. Why is it so? Isn't __import__ exactly same as import?

How to get exactly same result as 'import' using micropython?

Appreciate any help or pointer towards a solution.

Thanks a ton.

Found the answer.
m.__path__ was pointing to "devlib", instead of "devlib/motion_1601111". Unlike import, that takes 'dot_path", __import__() takes "slash_path".

changed it to __import__("devlib/motion_1601111") and it worked as expected
