Terry J. Reedy added the comment: #8231 will benefit if indirect imports of configHandler and idleConf into the user process can be eliminated. I do not currently believe it is needed. Not importing PyShell will go part way.
AutoComplete imports idleConf to get the popup delay. run imports AutoComplete to access fetch_completions -- in particular, the part after 'else', after the logic to determine which process the code is in and if in the idle process, whether to fetch in the idle process (-n) or user process. Fetch_completions is a function and not properly a method -- it only uses self to access get_entity. Get_entity is a two line function the also should not be a method. It is only called at the one place and the only reason to not put in inline would be for testing. The code after 'else' could be made a function in a separate module and the AutoComplete import eliminated. CallTip does not import idleConf, nor does CallTipWindow or HyperParser or PyParse. ---------- components: +IDLE _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25507> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
