Category: Documentation Group: None >Status: Open Resolution: Fixed Priority: 5 Submitted By: Mike Orr (hierro) Assigned to: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Summary: __new__ is class method Initial Comment: Section 3.3.1 of the Language Reference says, " __new__() is a static method" But it's actually a class method since it's first argument is the class. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Michael Hudson (mwh) Date: 2005-08-26 10:47 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=6656 Argh! Confusing as it is, __new__ really *is* a static method: >>> class C(object): ... def __new__(cls, name, bases, ns): ... pass ... >>> C.__dict__['__new__'] <staticmethod object at 0x2de9d0> so please revert this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Reinhold Birkenfeld (birkenfeld) Date: 2005-08-25 22:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1188172 Thanks for the report, fixed in Doc/ref/ref3.tex r1.127, 1.121.2.6. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1261229&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
