Nick Coghlan <ncogh...@gmail.com> added the comment: A __del__ method is definitely desirable (tempfile._TemporaryFileWrapper gives an example of how to cache the relevant globals on the class object to avoid attempting calls to None during interpreter shutdown).
The new examples are good, but may give the misleading impression that TemporaryFile can't be used as a context manager (it can, and the file will be closed at the end of the with statement). A second file example showing it being used as a context manager would probably be helpful. There is also at least one existing contextlib based temp_dir context managers that could be replaced given the addition of this (i.e. in test_cmd_line_script.py, "test_dir" could be changed to a class that inherits from tempfile.TemporaryDirectory and overrides __enter__ to invoke realname() on the directory name). _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5178> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
