Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Core (C code) Group: Python 2.4 >Status: Closed >Resolution: Postponed Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: James Y Knight (foom) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add missing types to __builtin__ Initial Comment: Add most of the missing type objects to __builtin__. Adds the following: ellipsis (not to be confused with Ellipsis, which is the object of this type) builtin_function_or_method dictproxy generator PyCObject classobj instance instancemethod cell NoneType NotImplementedType frame function module traceback code Does not add the rest of the names mentioned in my email, as I'm unsure if they got an approval or were silently ignored. I'm not convinced that it's a good idea to put the rest in __builtin__, myself.

This is going to be taken care of in Python 3 (somehow) regardless. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2005-01-27 01:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 I don't like to see further __builtin__ pollution, so I recommend to reject this patch. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1009811&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
