[docs] [issue26997] Docs for pdb should note that __future__ magic doesn't work

New submission from Martin Jones: when debugging a program at the pdb prompt, attempting to import from the __future__ module appears successful, but actually doesn't work: (Pdb) from __future__ import division (Pdb) 2/3 0 This leads to inconsistencies between statements evaluated on the pdb prompt and those evaluated in the program, which can hamper debugging. It would be good to have a note added to the 2.7 documentation for pdb along the lines of: Note: importing from the __future__ module does not work under pdb. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 265300 nosy: Martin Jones, docs@python priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Docs for pdb should note that __future__ magic doesn't work type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26997> _______________________________________
