`IPython.core.interactiveshell:InteractiveShell.showsyntaxerror`

source: /IPython/core/interactiveshell.py :2260

Signature

def showsyntaxerror ( self , filename = None , running_compiled_code = False )

Summary

Display the syntax error that just occurred.

Extended Summary

This doesn't display a stack trace because there isn't one.

If a filename is given, it is stuffed in the exception instead of what was there before (because Python's parser always uses "<string>" when reading from a string).

If the syntax error occurred when running a compiled code (i.e. running_compile_code=True), longer stack trace will be displayed.
