But how?
Well, I hadn’t thought that far ;-) But it would make frozen an instance level property, rather than a class-level one — some instances would be frozen, some not. Which would be kinda compatible with the idea of hashability being a property of values, rather than type. Frozen-ness would also be a property of values. But it would require a flag, and a bunch of logic overhead, which could get pretty ugly so maybe not worth it. -CHB On Mon, Feb 19, 2018 at 5:06 PM, Chris Barker - NOAA Federal < chris.bar...@noaa.gov> wrote: > If I have this right, on the discussion about frozen and hash, a use > case was brought up for taking a few steps to create an instance (and > thus wanting it not frozen) and then wanting it hashable. > > Which pointed to the idea of a “ freeze this from now on” method. > > This seems another use case — maybe it would be helpful to be able to > freeze an instance after creation for multiple use-cases? > > -CHB > -- --Guido van Rossum (python.org/~guido)
