Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment: Given that dictproxy is needed to implement the proper interface for classes I don't think it is an implementation detail, and so I think it ought to be constructable. We have more esoteric types constructable (e.g. function).
I also happen to think that its use to implement classes is a pretty darn good use case, and I am sure there are other use cases. I don't really care if we make it a builtin but there should be a standard name for it somewhere in the stdlib. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14386> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
