Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: About method_qualname.patch:
- apparently you forgot to add BuiltinFunctionPropertiesTest in test_main()? - a static method keeps a reference to the type: I think it's ok, although I'm not sure about the consequences (Guido, would you have an idea?) - about "XXX Note that it is not possible to use __qualname__ to distinguish a builtin bound instance method from its unbound equivalent", I don't think it's a problem. People can e.g. check for __self__: >>> list.append.__self__ Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'method_descriptor' object has no attribute '__self__' >>> list().append.__self__ [] ---------- nosy: +gvanrossum _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13577> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
