Eric V. Smith added the comment: Couldn't we create a private version of PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscape, to be called by ast.c, which passes back invalid escape info? Then have the actual warning raised by ast.c, which knows enough about the context to generate a better error/warning. I think we'd only be able to report on he first error in a string, though, but I haven't thought it all the way through.
I believe we'd only need to modify decode_unicode_with_escapes() in ast.c, which is called for both regular strings and f-string. And of course PyUnicode_DecodeUnicodeEscape would have to call the new private version and do the right thing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28128> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
