In the 2.5 development cycle, MAKE_CLOSURE as changed to take free
variables as a tuple rather than as individual items on the stack.
Closes patch #1534084.
discussion.
There are two places of documentation that still mention __context__:
Doc/lib/libstdtypes.tex -- I wasn't quite sure how to rewrite that without
spending a whole lot of time thinking about it; and whatsnew, which Andrew
usually likes to change himself.
Anyway, this is the changes to the with-statement
so that __exit__ must return a true value in order
for a pending exception to be ignored.
The PEP (343) is already updated.
- regenerate ast.py
- add future flags for absolute-import and with-statement so they
(hopefully) properly get set in code-object flags
- try out if/else expressions in actual code for the hell of it.
Seems to generate the same kind of bytecode as the normal compiler.
The culprit was an expression-less yield -- the first apparently in
the standard library. I added a unit test for this.
Also removed the hack to force compilation of test_with.py.
This was started by Mike Bland and completed by Guido
(with help from Neal).
This still needs a __future__ statement added;
Thomas is working on Michael's patch for that aspect.
There's a small amount of code cleanup and refactoring
in ast.c, compile.c and ceval.c (I fixed the lltrace
behavior when EXT_POP is used -- however I had to make
lltrace a static global).
This change implements a new bytecode compiler, based on a
transformation of the parse tree to an abstract syntax defined in
Parser/Python.asdl.
The compiler implementation is not complete, but it is in stable
enough shape to run the entire test suite excepting two disabled
tests.
SF patch #1015989
The basic idea of this patch is to compute lineno attributes for all AST nodes. The actual
implementation lead to a lot of restructing and code cleanup.
The generated AST nodes now have an optional lineno argument to constructor. Remove the
top-level asList(), since it didn't seem to serve any purpose. Add an __iter__ to ast nodes.
Use isinstance() instead of explicit type tests.
Change transformer to use the new lineno attribute, which replaces three lines of code with one.
Use universal newlines so that we can get rid of special-case code for line endings. Use
lookup_node() in a few more frequently called, but simple com_xxx methods(). Change string
exception to class exception.
