STINNER Victor added the comment: It seems like compile() only leaks when using PyCF_ONLY_AST:
compile(source, "filename", "exec", ast.PyCF_ONLY_AST) It's maybe a leak in the PyAST_mod2obj() function when creating dictionaries of created AST objects. But in ast_dealloc() of Python/Python-ast.c, I see that a "DECREF" (Py_CLEAR) for the dict. Maybe it's something else. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30542> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
