The reason I'd be a little disappointed to lose this is that it provides a concise way of defining genuine class methods (as opposed to the odd beasts created by classmethod()). Sometimes you need them, e.g. for __xxx__ methods, or if you want inheritance to work properly. Having said that, I can't remember whether I've ever actually used this, and I probably wouldn't miss it all that much. > I find this rather cool looking: > > class C(implements=(I1, I2)): ... I'm a bit worried that class headers are going to become rather cluttered if we start putting all sorts of stuff in there. E.g. are you intending to put __slots__ there? It makes sense, but it could lead to some rather long and unwieldy class headers. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
