"if else" condition generates "uncompyle6.semantics.pysource.SourceWalkerError: Deparsing stopped due to parse error"

[josephernest]

If you compile this test.py into a .pyc (with import py_compile; py_compile.compile("test.py")):

def f():
    L = []
    if len(L) > 1:
        if 1:
            pass
        else:
            pass
    else:
        pass

then decompiling it with uncompyle6 with

with open('test_decompiled.py', 'w') as f:
    uncompyle6.decompile_file(r'__pycache__\test.cpython-37.pyc', f)

generates this error:

uncompyle6.semantics.pysource.SourceWalkerError: Deparsing stopped due to parse error

Here is the full error:

@rocky I found an even more minimal example:

L = []
if len(L) > 1:
    pass
else:
    pass

Error log:

Both examples have been addressed in the decompyle3 project. However the massive grammar changes needs to be backported here.

[josephernest]

have been addressed in the decompyle6 project

@rocky what is the decompyle6 project? Is it different to uncompyle6?

decompyle6 project

Do you mean decompile3?
