accessing maya's interpreter globals from another scripts

[Rudi Hammad]

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to get the globals variables running in maya but from another script.

For instance say you have a module foo.py. Can you use get all maya's globals as if you were running 'globals()' withing maya's interpreter?

thx,

T

Global variables are.. global, so anything present in `globals()` from one module is present in another. Are you seeing different results from `globals()` in `foo.py` versus Maya's interpreter (by which I assume you mean the Script Editor)?

of course, in foo.py you get the module's global, and in maya's script editor you see maya's.

So I was wondering if you can query maya's globals (or locals) from an other foo.py.

I know, it is a strange question.

in other words, get the result in foo.py that you get when you run globals() in maya's script editor.

You can reference what I am going in the MayaSublime project. I import __main__ and access __main__.__dict__ for the globals as you would see them in the script editor
