Never copy attributes by hand, always use 'functools.wraps'. It copies '__name__', '__qualname__', and bunch of other attributes to the decorator object. We'll probably extend it to copy __signature__ too; then 'signature(decor(f))' will be the same as 'signature(f)'. - Yury _______________________________________________ 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
