Martin Panter added the comment: In Python 2, the class was called “dictproxy”, the repr() used “dict_proxy” with an underscore, and it is exposed as types.DictProxyType. So I guess that is where the term comes from. In Python 3.3, Issue 14386 renamed the class and repr() to “mappingproxy”, and re-introduced it to types as MappingProxyType. (DictProxyType was previously removed in revision 15649aef2db5.)
So in Python 3 I would probably change it from “dictproxy” to a types.MappingProxyType link. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26547> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
