Brett Cannon added the comment: Two things. One, this won't change in Python 2.7 due to compatibility, so this only applies to Python 3.6. Two, the AST has not been designed to support round-trip syntax transpiling, e.g. there is no way to get back comments in the source code.
Because the AST is not meant to round-trip on source code I'm going to close this as "not a bug" since I don't see any benefit in supporting this even if we gain comment nodes in the AST. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug status: open -> closed versions: +Python 3.6 -Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25885> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
