It sounds like both problems are space/tab indenting problems - the
first because line 241 is interpreted as at the block/level of the
class, rather than the method, and the second because the code at line
268 is indented further than the preceding line.
Try turning on visible whitespace in your editor, and make sure you're
not mixing tabs and spaces. CPython interprets a tab as 8 spaces, and
I'd guess that IronPython does the same. If the editor you're using
interprets them differently (say by advancing to the next tab-stop),
you'll get code that looks right in the editor, but has errors like
this.
Configure your editor to insert <however many spaces you want for an
indent level (2, 3 or 4 seem popular)> when you hit tab. I tell
Textpad to insert tabs, but convert all tabs in the file to 4 spaces
on saving. This has the advantage of not having to delete them
one-by-one on an unindent, although you can generally use shift-tab
(or ctrl-[ in IDLE) for that anyway.
(Some people would say that you should only use tabs. But I think
they're dying out - selection pressures seem to favour big, burly
backspace-key-fingers. ;)
Are you already familiar with CPython? It might be good to have a play
with that as well, if you're not - that could help you to work out
whether you're seeing a bug, or standard Python behaviour.
Hope that helps!
