I vote we don't change this. PEP 484 says: > The string literal should contain a valid Python expression (i.e., > compile(lit, '', 'eval') should be a valid code object) and it should > evaluate without errors once the module has been fully loaded. But compile() fails for leading whitespace. I also don't see a real use case for this. The dataclasses tests were presumably just added for completeness. If there's evidence this is a common pattern in the wild maybe we can reconsider. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue46552> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
