[Python-Dev] New Super PEP (original) (raw)

Being able to access the calling frame from IronPython would be really useful...

We do have a -X:Frames option but it's going to hurt your performance, but for example:

IronPython 1.0.60816 on .NET 2.0.50727.312 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

def f(): ... x = locals ... print x() ... f() {'name': 'main', 'builtins': <type '__builtin__'>, 'doc': None, 'site': <module 'site' from 'C:\Product\Released\IronPython-1.0\Lib\site.py'>, ' f': <function f at 0x000000000000002B>} ^Z

C:\Product\Released\IronPython-1.0>.\ipy.exe -X:Frames IronPython 1.0.60816 on .NET 2.0.50727.312 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

def f(): ... x = locals ... print x() ... f() {'x': } ^Z

But then we'll NEVER use the CLR stack for storing locals, but we can also always get the calling frames.
