[Python-projects] PyLint: Disabling message in "except" clause works in a strange way

[Maarten ter Huurne]

Hi,

If I run PyLint on this:
===
try:
        pass
except: # pylint: disable-msg=W0702
        print 'failed to do nothing'
===
The W0702 warning is issued even though I attempted to disable it.

If I run PyLint on this:
===
try:
        pass
except:
        # pylint: disable-msg=W0702
        print 'failed to do nothing'
===
The W0702 warning is still issued.

But if I run PyLint on this:
===
try:
        pass
except:
        print 'failed to do nothing' # pylint: disable-msg=W0702
===
The W0702 warning is suppressed.

I would expect the first form to be the one that works, not the third.

PyLint 0.12.1, astng 0.16.2, common 0.21.0

Bye,
                Maarten
