Sadly no, because at that time there is not enough information left to do things correctly. The problem manifest with constructs like if something or __debug__: ... You cannot just look at the bytecode before the POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE (or similar) because you don't know reliably which bytecodes correspond to the entire condition (at least that I know of). My proposal (it seem that works, but is being reviewed still) is basically doing a compiler pass that just check for errors over the blocks that we don't want to generate bytecode instead of not visiting them at all. I think is the less intrusive and faster solution that I can think off. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/[email protected]/message/22SLXBQI6RSVUSCKW25YGQFESD5OCEBV/
