List comprehension problem

[zwedwin]

While using IPython import embed; embed() in an ipdb session list comprehensions seem to have a broken scope, take the snippet as an example. Confirmed this is not an IPython issue.

Normal IPython output, outside of an ipdb session

What do you mean by an ipdb session ?

Can you describe how you start it ?

[zwedwin]

Ill be a bit pedantic for clarity:
import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace() somewhere in a python file as a breakpoint.
Run the file, now were in a ipdb "session" (at least thats what I mean by session)

Run this from the cli
from IPython import embed
embed()

Then you should be able to reproduce the error in the resulting "embeded" ipython session.

@zwedwin Thanks for the clarification. It helps to reproduce the issue.

And sorry to ask for pedantic explanations: as the README mentions, there are various ways to use ipdb.

[zwedwin]

No worries! thanks for looking into it

@gotcha any luck on this issue? I know its been awhile

This is fixed in Python 3.13 (any IPython version) and should work with Python 3.12 and 3.11 if using just released IPython 9.4.
