Pydev error: Unable to find module to reload

I wrote a module in python (using pydev). Most of my code is written in the 'main'. In the code, I read from a file. I wrote:

inputFile = 'training_data.txt'

Later, I tried getting the name of the inputFile as a parameter:

inputFile = str(sys.argv[0])

When I changed to that, I started getting the following error lots of times:

pydev debugger: Unable to find module to reload: "boolean_conj_predictor".

**boolean_conj_predictor is the name of the module.

str(sys.argv[0]) will be the name of the file you are running. Instead, try to access the next element, i.e., do inputFile = sys.argv[1].

You can observe this behaviour with a simple print statement, within your code, if you put a statement print sys.argv and then run your file like python test.py filename.txt, you will see the output array as ['test.py', 'filename.txt']
