Summary: doctest mishandles exceptions raised within generators
Initial Comment:
If a generator raises an exception while iterating over it, doctest
will only register the exception output, and will miss output that
occurred during previous loop iterations.
The following code clarifies and reproduces the problem:
(also included as an attachment)
"""Reproduce bug with exceptions in a generator in doctest tests.
This bug has been seen to occur in:
Linux (RH9):
Python 2.4.1
Python 2.3.5
Python 2.2.2 (using from __future__ import generators)
Windows XP:
Python 2.4.2
Python 2.3.5
"""
def error_generator():
"""Yield 0 to 2 and then try and raise an exception.
>>> for j in error_generator():
... print j
0
1
2
Traceback (most recent call last):
Exception: Contrived exception for sake of example
"""
# Note: This is obviously a contrived example of generator use.
for i in range(3):
yield i
if 1:
raise Exception("Contrived exception for sake of example")
raise StopIteration
if __name__ == '__main__':
# Run the doctest tests.
import sys
import doctest
doctest.testmod(sys.modules['__main__'])
print
print 'What should have happened...'
for j in error_generator():
print j
