Guido van Rossum <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: I want to make this "bypass getattr" behavior mandatory for those operations that currently use it, forcing the issue for other implementations of Python. That's a doc change (but an important one!). There are probably many random places where the docs imply that getattr is used where it isn't.
I am not sure that we need a proxy implementation in the stdlib; usually when proxying there is some intentional irregularity (that's why you're proxying) and I'm not sure how useful the mix-in class will be in practice. We should wait and see how effective it is in some realistic situations before accepting it into the stdlib. Also, typetools strikes me as a horrible name. ---------- nosy: +gvanrossum _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue643841> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
