【转载】有时候导入一个模块，还需要单独导入其中独立的部分，兼觉得stack overflow 这个网站不错

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24738104/python-tkinter-8-5-import-messagebox

The following code runs fine within IDLE, but otherwise I get \"NameError: global name \'messagebox\' is not defined\". However, if I explicitly state from tkinter import messagebox, it runs fine from where ever.

from tkinter import *
from tkinter import ttk 

root = Tk()
main  = ttk. (root)
messagebox.showinfo(\"My  \", \"My message\", icon=\"warning\", parent=main )

Why does IDLE not need the explicit import statement but elsewhere it is required?、

the messagebox is a separate submodule of tkinter, so simply doing a complete import from tkinter:

from tkinter import *

doesn\'t import messagebox

it has to be explicitly imported like so:

from tkinter import messagebox

in the same way that ttk has to be imported explicitly

the reason it works in idle is because idle imports messagebox for its own purposes, and because of the way idle works, its imports are accessible while working in idle

IDLE is written in Python and uses Tkinter for the GUI, so it looks like your program is using the import statements that IDLE itself is using. However, you should explicitly include the importstatement for the messagebox if you want to execute your program outside the IDLE process.
