Hi all,
I want to use an InteractiveConsole at some stage in a program to
interact with the local namespace: access, but also modify objects.
When the interactive console ends (ctrl-d) I want the program to
continue processing with the variables that may have been modified
interactively.
The code below works (block invoking the console is not in a
function). During the interactive session, I can read value of a, I
can change value of a and the new value is "updated" in the block
namespace.
import code
if __name__ == '__main__':
a=1
c = code.InteractiveConsole(locals())
c.interact() # Here I interactively change the value of a (a=2)
print "Value of a: ", a
print returns --> Value of a: 2
However, on the other code below (the console is invoked from within a
function block), during the interactive session, I can read value of
a, I can change value of a. But the local namespace of the function is
not updated:
import code
def test():
a=1
c = code.InteractiveConsole(locals())
c.interact() # Here I interactively change the value of a (a=2)
print "Value of a: ", a
if __name__ == '__main__':
test()
print returns --> Value of a: 1
I need to run the InteractiveConsole from a function block. I tried
different things with the local and parent frames (sys._getframe())
but nothing successful. If I put a in the global namespace it works,
but I would like to find a nicer solution and also understand what the
problem is.
Thanks for any help
