New submission from Igor Bronshteyn: Quoting Collin Winter: "I'd like there to be an Else() node for If.orelse, While.orelse, etc. My motivation is that I need the lineno and col_offset values of the "else" statement for a code-coverage utility; as it is, I have to find the last lineno of the if/while/etc suite and the first lineno of the "else" suite and then search between those two for the "else" statement."
from: http://bugs.python.org/issue1659410 Lack of position for "else" token hampers implementing of even simple static analysis checker that calculates NCNB (non-comment non-blank) lines (e.g. in a function). ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 223229 nosy: Igor.Bronshteyn priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: New AST node Else() should be introduced type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21992> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
