Question about how to use cog as a preprocessor :-(

[Steven W. Orr]

I have the following module:

#! /usr/bin/python
COG_DEBUG=1
def wrapper( dd ):
if dd == 1:
def dfunc( *args ):
print "print ",
for ii in args:
print repr(ii)
print "compd dfunc"
return dfunc
else:
def nfunc( *args ):
pass
print "compd nfunc"
return nfunc
dbgprint = wrapper(COG_DEBUG)
print "dbgprint = ", repr(dbgprint)
dbgprint("called from def hunk")
print "hello1"

This does what I want, but when I use this code inside cog then the call
to dbgprint doesn't do anything.

Here's the input to cog:

#! /usr/bin/python
[[[cog
import cog
def wrapper( dd ):
if dd == 1:
def dfunc( *args ):
cog.out( "print " )
for ii in args:
cog.out( repr(ii) )
print
print "compd dfunc"
return dfunc
else:
def nfunc( *args ):
pass
print "compd nfunc"
return nfunc
dbgprint = wrapper(COG_DEBUG)
print "dbgprint = ", repr(dbgprint)
dbgprint("called from def hunk")
]]]
[[[end]]]

print "hello1"
[[[cog dbgprint( "Hello from dbg" )]]]
[[[end]]]
print "Doo dis"

and this is the cmdline: cog.py -D COG_DEBUG=1 -d -o d1out.py d1.py

And the output is just

#! /usr/bin/python
import sys


print "hello1"
print "Doo dis"

DOes anyone have any ideas? :-(
