The locals of a function are actually stored in an array. When you access them as a dict using locals(), all you get is a dict containing a copy of their current values. Modifying that dict doesn't affect the underlying array. It seems that reading the f_locals of a frame does the same thing. To modify the locals, you would need to poke values into the original array -- but it doesn't seem to be exposed to Python. So it looks like you're out of luck. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
