Actually, I did this and committed a change (to pydb) before posting any of these queries. ;-) If "a number of standard library APIs" are doing the *same* thing, then shouldn't this exposed as a common routine? If on the other hand, by "a number" you mean "one" as in linecache -- 1 *is* a number too! -- then perhaps the relevant code that is buried inside the "updatecache" should be exposed on its own. (As a side benefit that code can be tested separately too!) Should I file a feature request for this? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
