FWIW, this should work:
def replaceFrame(self, ref, oldValue, newValue): for name, value in ref.f_locals.items(): if value is oldValue: exec "ref.f_locals[name] = newValue" assert ref.f_locals[name] is newValue
And, no, you don't have to tell me that this is an evil hack. I already know that, since I discovered it earlier this evening by poking around in the C source code for PyFrame_LocalsToFast and then looking to see what code calls that function :)
Yes. After poking around in Google with PyFrame_LocalsToFast, I found some other links to people doing that. I implemented a direct call using ctypes to make the code explicit about what's happening. I'm just glad it is possible now. Works fine in both 2.3 and 2.4.
