Let's definitely add this to the trunk (2.6). It sounds fine to me as a bugfix too, since (from your description) it doesn't change the behavior at all in CPython. Great.

It looks to me like the patch will apply fine against release25-maint.

No behaviour change.

Thanks

I won't have the time to submit this, but I'm sure there are others here who do. --Guido On 6/19/07, Michael Foord <fuzzyman at voidspace.org.uk> wrote: Hello all,

I've just submitted a patch on sourceforge to make inspect compatible with IronPython (and Jython I think). This patch originally comes from the IPCE ( http://fepy.sf.net ) project by Seo Sanghyeon. It is a trivial change really. The patch is number 1739696 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1739696&groupid=5470&atid=305470

It moves getting a reference to 'code.cocode' into the body of the loop responsible for inspecting anonymous (tuple) arguments. In IronPython, accessing 'cocode' raises a NotImplementedError - meaning that inspect.getargspec is broken. This patch means that except for functions with anonymous tuple arguments, it will work again on IronPython - whilst maintaining full compatibility with the previous behaviour. Jython has a similar patch to overcome the same issue by the way. See http://jython.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/jython?view=rev&revision=3200 As it is a bugfix - backporting to 2.5 would be great. Should I generate a separate patch? All the best, Michael Foord
