Research direction

Start with the supported-constructs documentation and the org.transcrypt.stubs.browser pragma entry point mentioned in the report, then compare the import behavior before and after Transcrypt 3.9.4. Done means establishing whether multiline JavaScript injection is supported and documenting or implementing a supported approach that does not require copying org.transcrypt.stubs.

Description

Hi again,

I am trying to use __pragma__() to inject multi line JS code. The introductory webpages in transcrypt.org shows that it can be imported from org.transcrypt.stubs:

from org.transcrypt.stubs.browser import __pragma__
def run (autoTester):
   ...
       __pragma__ ('js', '{}', 'self ["__dict__"] = {}')

link: https://www.transcrypt.org/docs/html/supported_constructs.html?highlight=__pragma__%20js#attribute-proxies-by-name-getattr-setattr

But, when I tried this way, 'org' not found error was raised. How can I import __pragma__?

I was using __pragma__ by copying the org.transcrypt.stubs directory to my local, and it worked. But I encountered an error when I upgraded the Transcrypt newest version 3.9.4. I think that copying the directory is not the right way.

Using #__pragma__ allows only single line code. If there is a way to inject multi line JS code, please tell me.

Thanks advance.
