Hello, The Python spec states that the “from
__future__ import …” statement can only occur at the beginning of
the file, preceded only by doc strings, comments, empty lines or other future
statements. The following code snippets, however, don’t raise Syntax
error in Python 2.4.2. Is it a bug? I am asking whether in IronPython we should
try to match behavior of Python compiler, or stick to the language spec. In
this case, I believe that we should stick to the spec and report a bug in
Python compiler. Thanks Martin Example 1: ------------------ x = 10 / 2 from __future__ import division ------------------ Example 2: ------------------ from sys import * from __future__ import division ------------------ |
