execfile locks file forever if there are any syntax errors - is it python bug?
Hello, When I execfile a file which contains a syntax error, the file becomes locked and stays this way all the way until I exit the interpreter (I am unable to delete it, for example). I have tried but failed to find any way to unlock the file... Is this a bug in Python? Is there *any* way to unlock the file? It is annoying for me because I often execfile various temporary files and it is a nuisance not to be able to delete them. I have tested with Python 2.5 on Windows... do other versions of Python behave this way as well? -- Best wishes, Slawomir Nowaczyk ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) I didn't fight my way to the top of the food chain to be a vegetarian. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

I did, and it is a bug, but it seems to be already fixed in SVN. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1681020&group_id=5470 -- Best wishes, Slawomir Nowaczyk ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) Does a clean house indicate that there is a broken computer in it? -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
