New submission from Steven Samuel Cole <steven.samuel.c...@gmail.com>:
inside a function, I create a local variable by using setattr with the current module as object, as in setattr(modules[__name__], 'name', 'value') if I _later_ in the code set name to None, the attribute becomes unavailable even for code that is executed _before_ setting name to None. please also see sample file. ---------- components: Interpreter Core files: show_weird_behavior.py messages: 118099 nosy: ssc priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: UnboundLocalError with local variable set by setattr, caused by code run later type: behavior versions: Python 2.6, Python 2.7 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file19146/show_weird_behavior.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10043> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
