New submission from Nicholas Chammas: I'm using the public functions of Python's built-in compileall module. https://docs.python.org/3/library/compileall.html#public-functions There doesn't appear to be documentation of what each of these functions returns. I figured out, for example, that compileall.compile_file() returns 1 when the file compiles successfully, and 0 if not. If this is "official" behavior, it would be good to see it documented so that we can rely on it. I'd be happy to submit a patch to fix this if a committer is willing to shepherd a new contributor (me) through the process. Otherwise, this is probably a quick fix for experienced contributors. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 255600 nosy: Nicholas Chammas, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: compileall functions do not document return values type: behavior versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25768> _______________________________________
