Seems to me it should be up to the block iterator whether a break statement gets caught or propagated, since it's up to the block iterator whether the construct behaves like a loop or not.
This could be achieved by having a separate exception for breaks, as originally proposed. If the iterator propagates the Break exception back out, the block statement should break any enclosing loop. If the iterator wants to behave like a loop, it can catch the Break exception and raise StopIteration instead. -- Greg Ewing, Computer Science Dept, +--------------------------------------+ University of Canterbury, | A citizen of NewZealandCorp, a | Christchurch, New Zealand | wholly-owned subsidiary of USA Inc. | [EMAIL PROTECTED] +--------------------------------------+ _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
