Emanuel Barry added the comment:
Using a simple metaclass shows that definition order is not at fault here:
>>> class PrintOrder(dict):
... def __setitem__(self, item, value):
... print(item, value)
... super().__setitem__(item, value)
...
>>> class Show(type):
... def __prepare__(name, bases): return PrintOrder()
...
>>> class A(metaclass=Show):
... B = range(10)
... C = frozenset([4, 5, 6])
... D = list(i for i in B)
... E = list(i for i in B if i in C)
...
__module__ __main__
__qualname__ A
B range(0, 10)
C frozenset({4, 5, 6})
D [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "<stdin>", line 5, in A
File "<stdin>", line 5, in <genexpr>
NameError: name 'C' is not defined
However, the following works:
>>> def local_definition():
... F = frozenset([4, 5, 6])
... class A(metaclass=Show):
... B = range(10)
... C = frozenset([4, 5, 6])
... D = list(i for i in B)
... E = list(i for i in B if i in F)
... return A
...
>>> local_definition()
__module__ __main__
__qualname__ local_definition.<locals>.A
B range(0, 10)
C frozenset({4, 5, 6})
D [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9]
E [4, 5, 6]
<class '__main__.local_definition.<locals>.A'>
Sounds like either an inconsistency between 'for' and 'if' parts of generator
expressions, or something weird about the way generator expressions work that
I'm unaware of.
Furthermore, this isn't documented in the tutorial, the functional programming
How-To, the 2.4 release notes or the PEP 289:
https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/classes.html#generator-expressions
https://docs.python.org/3/howto/functional.html#generator-expressions-and-list-comprehensions
https://docs.python.org/3/whatsnew/2.4.html#pep-289-generator-expressions
