Hi!

In order to implement "reaching definitions" algorithm.
I'm now working on control-flow (or data-flow) graph.

Here is funny picture made with graphviz ;)

Cool. Any plans on handling exceptions?

Sure, but I don't have much time for this :(

Linear block inside try...except body should be split by assignments
and each subblock should point to exception handling entry point.

Would every possible failing sub-expression have to point to the
exception handling point(s)?

Well, in most cases (especially the interesting ones), this will be the function exit point, so it'll be easy. And in some cases, we may be able to infer that a specific exception that an expression (e.g. arithmetics or a 'raise' statement) can raise will not get caught by a given except clause (although that's certainly a tricky optimisation).

But in general, I think any subexpression that potentially raises an exception must point to the next exception handling point.


I suppose it depends on whether you'll be handling more than assignment
tracking.

We *may* get away with a statement-level graph in that case, but I somehow doubt it already. For example, list comprehensions leak their variable in Py2 code, so it's important to know if they are executed or not, and they may appear in any kind of expression.
