I'm not familiar with NodeTransformer, but by the look of things, your
visit_For is being called (indirectly) by your own iterate_children,
which then ignores the return value. To apply changes like this,
either remove your definition of generic_visit, or have it pass
through to super():
def generic_visit(self, node):
"""
default behaviour
"""
print("visiting: "+node.__class__.__name__)
return super().generic_visit(node)
It's the code for NodeTransformer.generic_visit that does the
replacements (check out Lib/ast.py - it's down the very bottom in the
3.3 that I have), so if you bypass that, no replacement happens.
