Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
Oops, I realized it's not really a compiler bug. When the compiler sees class C: str: str = "abc" if effectively rearranges that to class C: str = "abc" __annotations__["str"] = str (where __annotations__ is initialized to {} at the start of the class scope). This goes to prove once again that silly things like str: str are an anti-pattern and should not be used. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43257> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
