> Is there a way to detect such issues at compile time? I'm a big fan of compile time checking, and I have attempted to do string syntax differentiation in other Python projects, but my experiences brought me to the conclusion that in most cases it's not worth the effort. This is of course a highly qualitative opinion and may not apply to foal, but it's very difficult to keep the boilerplate involved to a manageable level, and the effort involved is usually enormous because strings are so ubiquitous. Runtime checks, testing, and documentation are probably still the way forward for now. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
