IMO it's a feature, not a bug :-) >>> import enum >>> class Foo(enum.Enum): ... A = 1 ... B = 1.0 ... >>> Foo(1) <Foo.A: 1> >>> Foo(1.0) <Foo.A: 1> >>> Foo.B <Foo.A: 1>
See: https://docs.python.org/dev/library/enum.html#duplicating-enum-members-and-values "However, two enum members are allowed to have the same value. Given two members A and B with the same value (and A defined first), B is an alias to A. By-value lookup of the value of A and B will return A. By-name lookup of B will also return A." You can use @unique to detect such corner case: >>> @enum.unique ... class Foo2(enum.Enum): ... A = 1 ... B = 1.0 ... ValueError: duplicate values found in <enum 'Foo2'>: B -> A Victor On Mon, Dec 28, 2020 at 1:25 AM Paul Bryan via Python-Dev <python-dev@python.org> wrote: > > Should this be considered a bug in the Enum implementation? > > >>> class Foo(enum.Enum): > > ...
