I think it's a bad design to overload a function based on the type of am argument. I realize the stdlib does this in a number of places, for older functions. I don't think we'd add such a function today. I might not object to a new pickle API to do this, but I think the best approach is to have your own wrapper function. ---------- nosy: +eric.smith _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40074> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
