Uncaught exception by repl.complete

[BenWiederhake]

When generating completions, bpython has to interact with the given objects. These objects might be the product of active development, so a bug in, for example, __getattribute__ of the user code happens sometimes. bpython should stomach such errors.

Minimal reproducing example:

$ bpython3
bpython version 0.17.1 on top of Python 3.7.3 /usr/bin/python3
>>> class BadClass:
...     def __getattribute__(self, name):
...         assert False, "Let's say there is a bug here."
... 
>>> x = BadClass()
>>> x(

In the above session, I typed the (, but it did not appear on screen. (Boo me, I edited that part.)

I see two ways to fix this: Either wrap the code in complete in a try … finally, or wrap all the places where user code gets called. (This might be hard to find.)

None of the other issues seem to be related.
