Roger Serwy <roger.se...@gmail.com> added the comment: I tested your patch and it works. For the sake of completeness, here's what I did:
Test 1: Start IDLE in shell mode and run "import sys; print(sys.path)". The first entry should be '' This is consistent with the behavior of the regular python shell. Test 2: Restart the shell with Ctrl+F6 (and View->Restart Shell) and repeat Test 1. This should give the same result. Test 3: Create a script in /tmp/a.py with "import sys; print(sys.path)" as its contents. Running this script from the editor gives '/tmp' as the first entry. This is consistent with the behavior of running "python3 /tmp/a.py". I'd make one minor change to the patch for sake of being explicit in ScriptBinding.py: shell.restart_shell(event, with_cwd=False) My rationale was to modify only PyShell.py to get the correct behavior. Clearly, making a simple modification to ScriptBinding.py gives a much shorter solution. I also like your simplification for "start_subprocess". I did consider each case of default arguments. I developed my patch iteratively starting by having "with_cwd=False" for all function calls that called "transfer_path" so that the existing (incorrect) behavior remained. I then modified how these functions were called, setting "with_cwd=True" in the cases where '' needed to be transferred, namely on the shell start and restart from within the PyShell window. That is why I introduced "restart_shell_interactive". I do agree with your reasoning that one function call is better than two. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13506> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
