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 3000 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Christian Heimes (tiran) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Unify __builtins__ -> __builtin__ Initial Comment: The patch renames __builtins__ to __builtin__ in the C and Python sources and renames builtins to builtin in the C code. Missing: * documentation update * 2to3 fixer ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Guido van Rossum (gvanrossum) Date: 2007-08-18 16:34 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6380 Originator: NO Thanks! (Though I wish you'd left the C variable names alone, the patch is unnecessarily big this way.) I am also wondering about some semantic endcases; in 2.x, it is *possible* to have __builtin__ and __builtins__ point to different place, and I am going to do some soul-searching to make sure that's not a loss of functionality. No need to update the patch, I just have to think about it some more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1774369&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
