Probably there needs to be more clarification of the compilation context. Class definitions support lexical closures, whereas source code passed to exec is compiled at the time of the call, independent of the lexical context. In the following example, the code objects for both the class body and the comprehension can access the free variable "a". In CPython, the class body references the free variable via the LOAD_CLASSDEREF op, and the comprehension uses the LOAD_DEREF op. def f(): a = 5 class C: print(a) print([a for i in range(5)]) >>> f() 5 [5, 5, 5, 5, 5] >>> dis.dis(f.__code__.co_consts[2]) 3 0 LOAD_NAME 0 (__name__) 3 STORE_NAME 1 (__module__) 6 LOAD_CONST 0 ('f.<locals>.C') 9 STORE_NAME 2 (__qualname__) 4 12 LOAD_NAME 3 (print) 15 LOAD_CLASSDEREF 0 (a) 18 CALL_FUNCTION 1 (1 positional, 0 keyword pair) 21 POP_TOP 5 22 LOAD_NAME 3 (print) 25 LOAD_CLOSURE 0 (a) 28 BUILD_TUPLE 1 31 LOAD_CONST 1 (<code object <listcomp> ...>) 34 LOAD_CONST 2 ('f.<locals>.C.<listcomp>') 37 MAKE_CLOSURE 0 40 LOAD_NAME 4 (range) 43 LOAD_CONST 3 (5) 46 CALL_FUNCTION 1 (1 positional, 0 keyword pair) 49 GET_ITER 50 CALL_FUNCTION 1 (1 positional, 0 keyword pair) 53 CALL_FUNCTION 1 (1 positional, 0 keyword pair) 56 POP_TOP 57 LOAD_CONST 4 (None) 60 RETURN_VALUE >>> dis.dis(f.__code__.co_consts[2].co_consts[1]) 5 0 BUILD_LIST 0 3 LOAD_FAST 0 (.0) >> 6 FOR_ITER 12 (to 21) 9 STORE_FAST 1 (i) 12 LOAD_DEREF 0 (a) 15 LIST_APPEND 2 18 JUMP_ABSOLUTE 6 >> 21 RETURN_VALUE ---------- nosy: +eryksun _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24800> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
