New submission from Eric Hopper: The types.coroutine decorator for Python 3.6 (and I suspect for Python 3.6.1 as well) simply monkey patches the function it's passed and then returns it. This results in behavior that I found somewhat surprising.
def bar(): yield 5 foo = types.coroutine(bar) foo is bar And, so now both foo and bar are now awaitable. I wasn't really expecting this, and while it's minor, it also doesn't really seem like the right thing to do. ---------- components: asyncio messages: 290518 nosy: Omnifarious, yselivanov priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: types.coroutine monkey patches original function type: behavior versions: Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29909> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
