New submission from Sebastian Berg: `warnings.simplefilter` does not validate that the category passed in is actually a class. This means that an invalid category leads to a `TypeError` whenever a warning would otherwise occur due to `issubclass` check failing.
It is a very small thing, but for usability it would be clearer if this was checked right away. ---------- messages: 178867 nosy: seberg priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: warnings.simplefilter should validate input type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue16845> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
