woops, must not have tested with python optomized...
heres a fix for python -OO not sure about python -O
### lint.py
try:
assert(1 == 0)
if checker.__doc__ is None:
#print 'you may have run python -OO .pyo'
checker.__doc__ = """\n"""
except AssertionError:
pass
### etc
need_space = 80 - (len(checker.__doc__.splitlines()[-1]) %
80)
from the pylint page: this seems backwards
Stable release is PyLint 0.6
Development release is PyLint 0.5.0
I downloaded version 6 anyway last month
only installed it today, discovered the above problem right away
then went back to your ftp page to look for a new version,
but for some reason my browser didn't refresh that page.
(probably should have a meta expire on it.
sounds like a server configutation thing though I could be wrong.
my browser doesn't always refresh on sorceforge forums either.)
upon downloading and reading the list archive
discovered there is a 0.6.1 release
luckily I thought to refresh the page or I still woulden't see it.
download & install and this also has the same problem.
I have fallen into the same trap of __doc__ manipulation under python -OO
and without alot of research into what else might work
just did the obvious and tested for __doc__ is None.
you can maybe find a better way. I thank you in advance.
so now in addition to testing py2.2 2.3 2.4 and 2.5
lets not forget once and a while to run -t -O and other options.
the fun never ends.
do we have anything like a test suite of errors for python?
there used to be many for the c language that were very useful.
in my casual testing, python can't return the correct line number
for quite a few errors and thus make pylint and pychecker look bad.
thanks for pylint especially!
please mangle or delete my email address to avoid spam. thanks.
