1. So essentially this means that we will have one "local context" per context manager storing one value.
I can't see that being a major problem. Context vars will (I hope!) be very rare things, and needing to change a bunch of them in one function ought to be rarer still. But if you do, it would be easy to provide a context manager whose sole effect is to introduce a new context: with new_local_context(): cvar1.set(something) cvar2.set(otherthing) ...
2. If somebody makes a mistake and calls "push_local_context" without a corresponding "pop_local_context"
You wouldn't normally call them directly, they would be encapsulated in carefully-written context managers. If you do use them, you're taking responsibility for using them correctly. If it would make you feel happier, they could be named _push_local_context and _pop_local_context to emphasise that they're not intended for everyday use.
3. Users will need to know way more to correctly use the mechanism.
Most users will simply be using already-provided context managers, which they're *already used to doing*. So they won't have to know anything more than they already do. See my last decimal example, which required *no change* to existing correct user code.
So far, both you and Koos can't give us a realistic example which illustrates why we should suffer the implications of (1), (2), and (3).
And you haven't given a realistic example that convinces me your proposed with-statement-elimination feature would be of significant benefit. -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
