Meador Inge <mead...@gmail.com> added the comment: This seems to be a useful feature to me. Another area where it can help is with fixing function types. Currently the qualname can be lost:
>>> def f(): ... def g(): ... pass ... return g ... >>> g = f() >>> g <function f.<locals>.g at 0x7f1dac4d8ba0> >>> types.FunctionType(f.__code__, {}) <function f at 0x7f1dac4dfae0> >>> types.FunctionType(g.__code__, {}) There is no way to specify a qualname when constructing a 'FunctionType'. The name is derived from the code object. The qualname could be too if we fix this issue. I will open another issue for the 'FunctionType' problem. I have attached a WIP patch. It passes the full test suite. I am somewhat unsure about the CAPI changes, though. They are a breaking API change. Do we need a *_QualName version instead like we did for 'PyFunction_NewWithQualName'? I think probably so. I will add doc updates to the patch once the API stuff gets worked out. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file24317/issue13672-v0.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13672> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
