Category: Parser/Compiler Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: iga Seilnacht (zseil) >Assigned to: Thomas Wouters (twouters) Summary: Multiple dots in relative import statement raise SyntaxError Initial Comment: When a relative import statement contains more than one period and no module name, SyntaxError is raised. Example: from . import spam # this works from ..spam import eggs # this works from .. import eggs # this raises SyntaxError The problem is in the following line in Grammar/Grammar: import_from: ('from' ('.'* dotted_name | '.') According to Guido's mail: http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2003-December/041065.html that line should be: import_from: ('from' ('.'* dotted_name | '.'+) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1488915&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
