Emanuel Barry added the comment: Truncating at 200 characters is actually a common occurrence in the C code, just barely anyone notice this, as it's not common to need more than 200 characters for most expressions.
I don't think this needs to be changed at all; the rare case should not affect the common ones. If eval()'ing your repr fails, you can always access the full regex from `exp.pattern` - which doesn't truncate at 200 characters :) ---------- nosy: +ebarry _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26068> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
