python eval weirdness
- by amadain
Hi Folks
I have the following code in one of my classes along with checks when the code does not eval:
filterParam="self.recipientMSISDN==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[0] and self.recipientIMSI==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[1]"
if eval(filterParam):
print "Evalled"
else:
print "Not Evalled\nfilterParam\n'%s'\ntmpBPSS\n'%s'\nself.recipientMSISDN\n'%s'\nself.recipientIMSI\n'%s'" % (filterParam, tmpBPSS, self.recipientMSISDN, self.recipientIMSI)
I am not getting anything to 'eval'. Here are the results:
Not Evalled
filterParam
'self.recipientMSISDN==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[0] and self.recipientIMSI==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[1]'
tmpBPSS
'bprm_DAILY_MO_919844000039#892000000'
self.recipientMSISDN
'919844000039'
self.recipientIMSI
'892000000'
So I used the outputs from the above to check the code in a python shell and as you can see the code evalled correctly:
>>> filterParam="recipientMSISDN==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[0] and recipientIMSI==tmpBPSS.split('_')[3].split('#')[1]"
>>> tmpBPSS='bprm_DAILY_MO_919844000039#892000000'
>>> recipientMSISDN='919844000039'
>>> recipientIMSI='892000000'
>>> if eval(filterParam):
... print "Evalled"
... else:
... print "Not Evalled"
...
Evalled
Am I off my rocker or what am I missing?
