New REPL does not include globals from executed module when used with -i #120678
Description
Activity
It seems the new REPL doesn't get executed in the
__main__namespace. This can be worked around manually:$ python -ic "class Foo: pass">>> Foo Traceback (most recent call last): File "<python-input-0>", line 1, in <module> Foo NameError: name 'Foo' is not defined>>> import sys >>> from _pyrepl.simple_interact import run_multiline_interactive_console >>> run_multiline_interactive_console(sys.modules['__main__']) >>> Foo <class '__main__.Foo'> >>> dir() ['CAN_USE_PYREPL', 'Foo', '__annotations__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__spec__', 'interactive_console', 'os', 'sys']
This can be addressed in "Lib/_pyrepl/__main__.py". All imports and assignments in that module (e.g.
CAN_USE_PYREPL,interactive_console,os, andsys) should be uniquely prefixed to avoid collisions and to allow clearing them before callingrun_interactive(mainmodule).This is a regression that was caused by #119547.
