Introspection error with no EOL at end of file with PointField

[jcd@…]

I have an app called apps.cdla_apps.parkway, with three models, two of which have a PointField in them (both named coordinates). The file doesn't end with a newline, and when I run ./manage.py startmigration parkway --initial on it, the first PointField? (county.coordinates) gets introspected just fine, but the second one (location.coordinates) gets Nodefed, and issues a warning. If I change nothing in the file, but resave it with a text editor that adds a newline, It works just fine.

My model:

try:
    from django.contrib.gis.db import models
except NotImplementedError:
    from django.db import models

from django.contrib.localflavor.us import models as us_models

# Create your models here.


class County(models.Model):
    county = models.CharField(max_length=64)
    state = us_models.USStateField(default='NC')
    coordinates = models.PointField(blank=True, null=True)
    
    
    class Meta:
        verbose_name_plural = 'Counties'
        ordering = ('county',)
    
    def __unicode__(self):
        return u'%(county)s (%(state)s)' % self.__dict__

class Section(models.Model):
    section = models.CharField(max_length=8)
    description = models.CharField(max_length=64, blank=True)
    mile_start = models.FloatField(blank=True, null=True, help_text='Milepost Start')
    mile_stop = models.FloatField(blank=True, null=True, help_text='Milepost End')
   
    class Meta(object):
        ordering = (u'section',)
        
    def __unicode__(self):
        return u'%(section)s (%(description)s)' % self.__dict__

class Location(models.Model):
    label = models.CharField(max_length=128, blank=True)
    milepost = models.FloatField(blank=True, null=True)
    county = models.ForeignKey(County, blank=True, null=True)
    section = models.ForeignKey(Section, blank=True, null=True)
    description = models.TextField(blank=True)
    coordinates = models.PointField(blank=True, null=True)
    
    
    class Meta:
        ordering = ('label',)
    
    def __unicode__(self):
        return u'%(label)s' % self.__dict__

The frozen model looks like this after the failed introspection:

    models = {
        'parkway.county': {
            'coordinates': ('models.PointField', [], {'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'county': ('django.db.models.fields.CharField', [], {'max_length': '64'}),
            'id': ('django.db.models.fields.AutoField', [], {'primary_key': 'True'}),
            'state': ('django.contrib.localflavor.us.models.USStateField', [], {'default': "'NC'"})
        },
        'parkway.location': {
            'coordinates': '<< PUT FIELD DEFINITION HERE >>',
            'county': ('django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey', [], {'to': "orm['parkway.County']", 'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'description': ('django.db.models.fields.TextField', [], {'blank': 'True'}),
            'id': ('django.db.models.fields.AutoField', [], {'primary_key': 'True'}),
            'label': ('django.db.models.fields.CharField', [], {'max_length': '128', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'milepost': ('django.db.models.fields.FloatField', [], {'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'section': ('django.db.models.fields.related.ForeignKey', [], {'to': "orm['parkway.Section']", 'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'})
        },
        'parkway.section': {
            'description': ('django.db.models.fields.CharField', [], {'max_length': '64', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'id': ('django.db.models.fields.AutoField', [], {'primary_key': 'True'}),
            'mile_start': ('django.db.models.fields.FloatField', [], {'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'mile_stop': ('django.db.models.fields.FloatField', [], {'null': 'True', 'blank': 'True'}),
            'section': ('django.db.models.fields.CharField', [], {'max_length': '8'})
        }
    }
    
    complete_apps = ['parkway']

Attached are copies of the model file with and without newlines, as sensible editors make it difficult to replicate this issue. :)

Please forgive the verbosity of the models. I was having trouble trimming it down without fixing the problem. :)

That's very odd; newlines shouldn't affect the introspector, it doesn't even look at the source file!

I've been rewriting the migration generator for 0.7 anyway, so hopefully this'll be solved there; I'll move it to the 0.7 milestone for verification. In the meantime, I suggest you add newlines...

(also, attaching a correctly-generated frozen models dict would help)

[andrew]

Introspection is now competely removed from 0.7, so this bug is vacuously fixed!
