IDLE, F5 – wrong external file content on error.
using:
Python 2.3.5 (#62, Feb 8 2005, 16:23:02) [MSC v.1200
32 bit (Intel)] on win32
IDLE 1.0.5 , TK: 8.4
The basic problem is that when a external file is
reloaded, by using F5, and that file contains a error.
IDLE will tell about the error, and highlight the
error, but its still using the old file content in its
GUI window and not the newly reloaded file content.
when: (IDLE GUI)
- using F5 to reload and restart a external script.
- new and changed script file containing a error.
what:
- display is showing previous script content.
- error highlight is pointing at the wrong code. (bad!)
how:
first file: (create, load and execute)
---
a = 1
print a
---
change to:
---
a = 1
print a :
print a
---
use F5 to auto reload and execute.
Anything I'm doing wrong, or I can do locally to fix
this?. just let me know.
ps: upgrade to 2.4.x is not really a option in my case.
(not yet at leased)
