Hi,
Thanks to the help of many on this list, I've been able to take code
that is created by the user in my app and add it to an object as an
instance method. The technique used is roughly:
nm = "myMethod"
code = """def myMethod(self):
print "Line 1"
print "My Value is %s" % self.Value
return
"""
compCode = compile(code, "", "exec")
exec compCode
exec "self.%s = %s.__get__(self)" % (nm, nm)
This is working great, but now I'm wondering if there is a way to
enable pdb tracing of the code as it executes? When tracing "normal"
code, pdb will show you the name of the script being executed, the
line number and the source code for the line about to be executed.
But when stepping through code compiled dynamically as above, the
current line's source code is not available to pdb, and thus does not
display.
Does anyone know a way to compile the dynamic code so that pdb can
'see' the source? I suppose I could write it all out to a bunch of
temp files, but that would be terribly messy. Are there any neater
solutions?
