Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 2.4 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: dib (dib_at_work) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Over-zealous keyword-arguments check for built-in set class Initial Comment: The fix for bug #1119418 (xrange() builtin accepts keyword arg silently) included in Python 2.4.2c1+ breaks code that passes keyword argument(s) into classes derived from the built-in set class, even if those derived classes explictly accept those keyword arguments and avoid passing them down to the built-in base class. Simplified version of code in attached BuiltinSetKeywordArgumentsCheckBroken.py fails at (G) due to bug #1119418 if version < 2.4.2c1; if version >= 2.4.2c1 (G) passes thanks to that bug fix, but instead (H) incorrectly-in-my-view fails. [Presume similar cases would fail for xrange and the other classes mentioned in #1119418.] -- David Bruce (Tested on 2.4, 2.4.2, 2.5a2 on linux2, win32.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1486663&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
