ppperry added the comment: Another example of this overzealous removing is when you create a module named rpc, run, RemoteDebugger, or bdb. For example (in this environment, a file in the current directory named rpc.py exists and refers to the undefined name "bar"): >>>import rpc Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#x>", line 1, in <module> import rpc NameError: name 'bar' is not defined
The correct traceback is: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<pyshell#x>", line 1, in <module> File "rpc.py", line 2, in <module> bar NameError: name 'bar' is not defined The IDLE debugger also refuses to debug code in the above file (only if it is named "rpc" not any of the other names). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24252> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
