Running python3-3.7.3 on Slackware-14.2.
I'm trying to debug a module using pdb but failing with all attempts. For
example, using breakpoint() at the line where I want to stop the running
module and examine each line's execution, the program runs to completion and
shows there's a syntax error:
$ python3 geochem.py
File "geochem.py", line 35
boxchoices = ttk.Combobox(self, textvariable=med,
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Importing pdb and inserting pdb.set_trace() produces the same output.
invoking pdb from the command line produces a full back trace:
$ python3 -m pdb geochem.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/pdb.py", line 1701, in main
pdb._runscript(mainpyfile)
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/pdb.py", line 1570, in _runscript
self.run(statement)
File "/usr/lib/python3.7/bdb.py", line 585, in run
exec(cmd, globals, locals)
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/rshepard/development/openEDMS/views/geochem.py", line 35
boxchoices = ttk.Combobox(self, textvariable=med,
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
I don't understand the source of the syntax error and I'm not able to allow
pdb to step through the code.
Your advice appreciated,
It's possible that the error is actually on the previous line and that
it thinks that what's on line 35 is a continuation of what's on line 34,
but it isn't.
