We've recently started to see pylint flag issues on a piece of code that looks
similar to this -
---------------------------------------
#!/bin/python
"""
Test the TemporaryFile iterator
"""
import os
import tempfile
with tempfile.TemporaryFile() as nullfh:
nullfh.write(b'Hello world!')
nullfh.seek(0, os.SEEK_SET)
for line in nullfh:
line = line.strip()
print line
---------------------------------------
With
pylint 1.7.1,
astroid 1.5.2
Python 2.7.5 (default, Nov 6 2016, 00:28:07)
This reports -
E: 13,16: Non-iterable value nullfh is used in an iterating context
(not-an-iterable)
However the code is functional so nullfh does work in the iterating context.
Any clues as to why this is being flagged would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark.
