After more thought, I think the existing behavior is probably what we want. There may not be a clean way to allow access and updates to non-locals. Even if a way was found, it may tie our hands and preclude other implementation changes down the road. Also, such a feature may be at odds with the current API which allows the execution environment to be retargeted. There is also a risk of introducing new security issues. I've attached a PR to update the eval() docs to reflect the actual behavior. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37646> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
