@@ -10,23 +10,36 @@ decompile everything. Overall, I think this one probably does the best
job of *any* Python decompiler that handles such a wide range of
versions.
But at any given time, there are maybe dozens of valid Python bytecode
files that I know of that will cause problems. And when I get through
those and all the issues of decompiler bugs that are currently logged,
I could probably easily find dozens more bugs just by doing a
decompile of all the Python bytecode on any one of my
computers. Unless you want to help out by _fixing_ bugs, or are
willing to do work by isolating and narrowing bugs, don't feel you are
doing me a favor by doing scans on your favorite sets of bytecode
files.
But at any given time, there are a number of valid Python bytecode
files that I know of that will cause problems. See, for example, the
list in
[`test/stdlib/runtests.sh`](https://github.com/rocky/python-uncompyle6/blob/master/test/stdlib/runtests.sh).
In sum, it is not uncommon that you will find a mistranslation in
decompiling. Furthermore, you may be expected to do some work in order
to have your bug worthy of being considered above other bugs.
But I understand: you would the bugs _you_ encounter addressed before
all the other known bugs.
No one is getting paid to work to work on this project, let alone bugs
you may have an interest in. If you require decompiling bytecode
immediately, consider using a decompilation service.
From my standpoint, the good thing about the bugs listed in
`runtests.sh` is that each test case is small and isolated to a single
kind of problem. And I'll tend to fix easier, more isolated cases than
generic "something's wrong" kinds of bugs where I'd have to do a bit
of work to figure out what's up, if not use some sort of mind reading,
make some guesses, and perform some experiments to see if the guesses
are correct. I can't read minds, nor am I into guessing games; I'd
rather devote the effort spent instead towards fixing bugs that are
precisely defined.
And it often turns out that by just fixing the well-defined and
prescribed cases, the ill-defined amorphous cases as well will get
handled as well.
In sum, you may need to do some work to have the bug you have found
handled before the hundreds of other bugs, and things I could be
doing.
