New submission from Romeo Victor Dellarocco <della...@gmail.com>: Idle hangs when given the name of a nonexistent file. The idle window briefly appears, then disappears, the process hangs and has to be terminated.
Platform: Linux 2.6.22-16-rt #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Mon Nov 24 21:03:25 GMT 2008 i686 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 7.10 Python3.0 Final built from source. tk8.4 I upgraded to tk8.5, idle still does the same thing. To recreate type: rm foo.py idle foo.py # The idle window briefly appears, then disappears, the process hangs # and has to be terminated. In previous versions of idle any nonexistent files would be created by idle. This is what one would expect. I have a patch for idlelib/PyShell.py that will make idle create any nonexisting files. ---------- components: IDLE files: idle_create_file_if_not_exist.python3_0.patch keywords: patch messages: 80079 nosy: della1rv severity: normal status: open title: Idle hangs when given a nonexistent filename. versions: Python 3.0 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file12783/idle_create_file_if_not_exist.python3_0.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue4985> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
