CachingCompiler

class IPython.core.compilerop.CachingCompiler

Bases: codeop.Compile

A compiler that caches code compiled from interactive statements.

__init__()

cache(code, number=0)

Make a name for a block of code, and cache the code.

Parameters :

code : str

The Python source code to cache.

number : int

A number which forms part of the code’s name. Used for the execution counter.

Returns :

The name of the cached code (as a string). Pass this as the filename :

argument to compilation, so that tracebacks are correctly hooked up. :

check_cache(*args)

Call linecache.checkcache() safely protecting our cached values.

compiler_flags

Flags currently active in the compilation process.

IPython.core.compilerop.code_name(code, number=0)

Compute a (probably) unique name for code for caching.

This now expects code to be unicode.
