[issue22096] Argument Clinic: add ability to specify an existing impl function
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: I don't think it it is worth the effort. You would need two different entry functions still, to allow error messages to refer to the function name. Since the _impl functions can trivially call each other, the saving in lines of code are minimal, and from a code reading point of view, having aliases actually complicates the code. -- nosy: +loewis ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue22096 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
[issue22096] Argument Clinic: add ability to specify an existing impl function
Larry Hastings added the comment: I'm with Martin. It would be a funny exception, where the reader'd get confused... why is the impl missing? Also, any halfway-decent optimizer will inline the impl into the parsing function, so this has no runtime cost. -- ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue22096 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com

[issue22096] Argument Clinic: add ability to specify an existing impl function
New submission from Zachary Ware: It would be nice to be able to specify an existing function as the _impl function, for cases like winreg.OpenKey and OpenKeyEx which are the same function by different names, or _winapi.GetCurrentProcess, whose impl function is return GetCurrentProcess(). This is pretty minor, but would allow for some shorter and cleaner code. Unfortunately, I don't have any great ideas for syntax for this, so it may be rejected just on that basis. -- priority: normal - low ___ Python tracker rep...@bugs.python.org http://bugs.python.org/issue22096 ___ ___ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
