Serhiy Storchaka added the comment: The traceback contain the location of the code that raised an exception when executed. In case of NameError this is a line in your script "x=u". In case of SyntaxError the code that failed is not in your script (it still is not executed), but in a compiler implicitly called by exec(). The line with exec() is correctly reported.
The behavior looks correct to me. ---------- nosy: +serhiy.storchaka _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30496> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
