Interesting. You'll find that if you let the function continue, lv is actually set to 2. Why pdb prints 1 I don't know. It might be interesting to find out why that is, although since it's fixed in Python 2.7 and Python 3, perhaps observing the changes in pdb.py (or other related code) between Python 2.6 and 2.7 might be the quickest way to find out. -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido) _______________________________________________ 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
