New submission from Roger Serwy: IDLE's IndentSearcher class in EditorWindow.py can raise an uncaught IndentationError when opening a file. The attached patch fixes the problem by catching everything that the tokenize module can raise explicitly, namely IndentationError, TokenError, and SyntaxError.
Alternatively, the except clause can be left bare, as it is disappointing to crash IDLE when simply guessing the indent width of a file. (See "guess_indent" in EditorWindow.py) ---------- components: IDLE files: editor_token_error.patch keywords: patch messages: 175895 nosy: serwy priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: IDLE - fatal error when opening a file with certain tokenizing errors type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.1, Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file28030/editor_token_error.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16504> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
