One should just write somedict[x] instead. If PEP 580 or PEP 590 is accepted, it should be easy to simply make wrapper descriptors such as somedict.__getitem__ faster, removing the need for METH_COEXIST. ---------- nosy: +jdemeyer _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34396> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
