As I've mentioned, I've been re-examining from ground up the whole state of affairs in writing a debugger.
One of the challenges of a debugger or any source-code analysis tool is verifying that the source-code that the tool is reporting on corresponds to the compiled object under execution. (For debuggers, this problem becomes more likely to occur when you are debugging on a computer that isn't the same as the computer where the code is running.) Is there a checksum of the source text computed and stored in compilation? If not, should there be one? _______________________________________________ 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
