I don't understand it enough to figure out a solution. In the debugger, I want to examine the contents of the current instance, so I can type (Pdb) dir(self) and get the result with no problem. However, it is a long list containing attribute names and method names, and I only want to see the attribute names. So I tried this - (Pdb) [x for x in dir(self) if not callable(getattr(self, x))] *** NameError: name 'self' is not defined (Pdb) Q1. Can someone explain what is going on? Q2. Is there a way to get what I want?If you put that line of code into your actual source code, does it work? I think this might be a pdb-specific issue, since normally the comprehension should have no difficulty seeing names from its surrounding context. A minimal case will probably involve the debugger and a function with a local, unless in some way this depends on 'self' being special.
Yes, is does work from within my source code. Frank -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
