Yury Selivanov added the comment: That's the intended and documented behaviour, see https://docs.python.org/3/library/inspect.html#inspect.BoundArguments.arguments.
You can easily implement the functionality you need by iterating through Signature.parameters and copying defaults to the BoundArguments.arguments mapping. There is no need to complicate the API with a dedicated method for that (if anything, in 3.5 you can subclass Signature and use from_callable to have any functionality you want). Closing this one as 'not a bug'. ---------- resolution: -> not a bug status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21684> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
