Nick Coghlan added the comment: Oops, couple of typos:
"... only triggers metaclass resolution at that point ..." "... if either the metaclass being instantiated is a subclass of all the metaclasses of all of the bases ..." But the only way to bypass the "most derived metaclass" rule is for the the metaclass hint to be a callable that creates something that *isn't* a subclass of type. If you look at the tracebacks you're getting, you should see that the failure *isn't* in the class statement or the outer dynamic type, it's in "metaclass_callable", where the *inner* dynamic type creation is failing. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28437> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
