New submission from Andy S <gatekeeper.m...@gmail.com>:
The python (3.6) doc states (https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#the-pass-statement): pass is a null operation... So since this is still an operation one could expect that it can be used as an op to breakpoint on while debugging some scripts. Nevertheless: $ pdb3.7 ./debug_bug.py > /...play/debug_bug.py(1)<module>() -> a = None (Pdb) list 1 -> a = None 2 3 4 def fun(): 5 b = False 6 if a is None: 7 b = True 8 pass 9 else: 10 pass 11 (Pdb) 12 13 fun() 14 pass [EOF] (Pdb) b 10 Breakpoint 1 at /...play/debug_bug.py:10 (Pdb) run Restarting ./debug_bug.py with arguments: ./debug_bug.py > /...play/debug_bug.py(1)<module>() -> a = None (Pdb) continue > /...play/debug_bug.py(10)fun() -> pass (Pdb) bt /usr/lib/python3.7/bdb.py(585)run() -> exec(cmd, globals, locals) <string>(1)<module>() /...play/debug_bug.py(13)<module>() -> fun() > /...play/debug_bug.py(10)fun() -> pass (Pdb) p b True (Pdb) ---------- components: Interpreter Core, Library (Lib) files: debug_bug.py messages: 382351 nosy: gatekeeper.mail priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: debugger stops at breakpoint of `pass` that is not actually reached type: behavior versions: Python 3.7 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file49649/debug_bug.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue42548> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
