This has indeed happened to us in the past. If I recall, someone told us about it a while back and we just assumed it was one of those things you had to deal with. When it does happen it seems to be a random occurrence. Perhaps it is (or was) a Wing related issue.

Like I said it was repeatable. I believe Larry can confirm. Also any test case we could provide would be a little to large and require far to many dependencies to be a simple test case. I like to think I'm a practical programmer meaning that if removing a comment allows the program to run then I remove the comment. If there was some other cause like formatting or some other issue I really did not see it. So for now I never use a comment immediately after def or class - only triple quotes. -- John Fabiani [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/dabo-dev Searchable Archives: http://leafe.com/archives/search/dabo-dev This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/dabo-dev/!~!UENERkVCMDkAAQACAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABgAAAAAAAAAafA2fnYuPUOMNFpIYnBEQcKAAAAQAAAAd98Ye2v/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
