Christoph Sarnowski added the comment: Hi, sorry for forgetting steps to reproduce the bug.
Easiest way to see it is to start redemo.py from a console (important on windows), so you can see stdout/stderr. Then just a click on any of those flag checkboxes leads to an exception backtrace printed on the console. And to demonstrate that the flag checkbox does not work, enter ".*" (without quotes) as the pattern, and any multiline string as the string to search, and activate the checkbox "MULTILINE". Correct behaviour: no exception, all lines of the string get highlighted as the first match Erroneous (actual) behaviour: An exception traceback gets printed: '_tkinter.TclError: expected integer but got "RegexFlag.MULTILINE"' and only the first line is highlighted as first match, demonstrating that the MULTILINE flag is in fact not active. When it comes to a pull request, I could do that for the change that I proposed. But regarding the "LOCALE" flag, the better solution (in my opinion) would be to make it work instead of just removing it, but that is a more elaborate change that I am not able to spend time on. What would you suggest? a) I provide a pull request, leaving "LOCALE" flag behaviour broken b) I provide a pull request, removing "LOCALE" flag (to be introduced again when someone is willing to fix it) ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30722> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
