Hi,
When a class is defined within a function, the class generation function's
'__qualname__' attrbute is not qualified a name.
For instance:
def test():
class T:
def method(self):
pass
t = T()
t.method()
When tracing a call to 'test()' using 'sys.settrace()', extracting the
'code' object from the frames of 'call' events and matching it to a
'function' object (using 'gc.get_referrers()') results in the following:
'code' object 'function' object
---------------- ------------------------------------
co_name: test __qualname__: test
co_name: T __qualname__: T
co_name: method __qualname__: test.<locals>.T.method
The second call corresponds to the class definition and not the call to the
constructor (which is in fact a call to 'object.__init__', a C function
hence not traced as a 'call' event - I checked this by disassembling the
code object).
I would expect the second call's '__qualname__' to be 'test.<locals>.T'. Can
this be considered a bug? If so, I'll open one.
