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 2.6 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Alexander Belopolsky (belopolsky) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Allow any mapping after ** in calls Initial Comment: Python allows arbitrary sequences after * in calls, but an expression following ** must be a (subclass of) dict. The attached patch makes Python accept arbitrary mappings after **. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Alexander Belopolsky (belopolsky) Date: 2007-03-23 15:44 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=835142 Originator: YES I've fixed the flaws in star-star-mapping-1.patch . I will ask on python-dev about the feature. If the proposal is accepted, I will probably refactor the code to avoid using the second goto label. File Added: star-star-mapping-1.patch ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Georg Brandl (gbrandl) Date: 2007-03-23 14:45 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=849994 Originator: NO Two flaws: - what if kwdict is NULL? Shouldn't happen, but the old version raises an error in this case. - if PyDict_Update fails, tmpdict is leaked. Please ask on python-dev whether to include this feature. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1686487&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
