Summarize your change.
Python 3 dropped support for
execfile
, which is why we're importing it frompast.builtins
.Looks like Python 3.10 finally broke support for
execfile
as it no longer contains one of the needed dependencies:Recreate the same behavior by reading the outline file with
open
/read
and executing it withexec
.compile
is also used to associate the code with the outline file, which helps add some additional info when debugging.
