New submission from Giampaolo Rodola' <g.rodola at gmail.com>:
Not sure if this is on purpose but I've lost quite some time to debug this problem.
--- code ---
def foo():
bar = 1
import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
foo()
--- pdb session ---
(Pdb) dir()
['__return__', 'bar', 'pdb']
(Pdb) bar
1
(Pdb) bar = 2
(Pdb) bar
1
(Pdb)
If this is on purpose (pdb just CAN'T do it) then I would expect it to display an error of some kind when I enter "bar = 2", say: "*** NameError: 'foo' is a reserved name".
