Unfortunately it's not nearly that simple. As I mentioned in my message on python-dev, the problem is that 'y' gets bound with a 'STORE_NAME' opcode, which puts 'y' into the locals dict, and then retrieved from within the function with a 'LOAD_GLOBAL' opcode, which looks in the globals dict; hence the NameError. So should the compiler be generating a 'LOAD_NAME' instead of a 'LOAD_GLOBAL' for this code? I'm not really familiar with the compilation process, so I've no idea whether this makes sense, or what impact it might have on existing code. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue991196> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
