I am using python 2.3.5 and I just haven't seemed to understand why I get an error that says "SyntaxError: unqualified exec is not allowed in function 'parse' it contains a nested function with free variables". I am trying to develop a scripting language for my operating system that is built in on top of mono, so I will eventually be porting this to IronPython. I do not want people suggesting I just use program XYZ instead. If someone could fix my code I would greatly appreciate it. Also if anybody would like to improve this I would be happy. ;)

Hi,

I suggest that if you don't have any luck here, try the following addresses as some specialize in certain areas that may not be covered here. The first address is the general discussion list for the Python programming language. The second address is for all the addresses that mail.Python.org handles.

1. http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list (Python-list)

2. http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo (all the public mailing lists on mail.python.org)

Best of luck!:)

I would try incrementally removing some of the functions from the scope of parse(). Sooner or later Python will stop complaining and you'll have a better idea where your problem lies.

At that point even if you can't figure out why you're getting the error, you'll have a much better chance someone will look at a 50-line program instead of a 450-line program.

Thanks for the suggestions, actually this is about the sixth time I tried to rewrite my language. I have given up the syntax used here and I have created a new simpler syntax. The language I am currently creating generates code using an intermediate code that translates to python on the fly. If any of you are interested I will be releasing my code at my website as open source. If you are wondering, I don't work on my website all the time and I host it myself, here.
