Stefan Seefeld added the comment: Mark,
thanks for the quick follow-up. OK, i now understand the situation better. The documentation I had read originally didn't talk about special-casing built-in objects. (And since I want to extend a tuple, I do have to override __getslice__ since I want to make sure the returned object still has the derived type.) Yes, I believe this issue can be closed as invalid. (Though I believe the docs could be a bit more clear about this.) Thanks, Stefan -- ...ich hab' noch einen Koffer in Berlin... __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2041> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
