Alori added the comment: @pitrou: Thank you for your answer. I agree they should not replace databases or files, but I think 255 is just way too lightweight. It feels unnatural to have this limitation for no specific reason.
Recently, I've seen a lot of solutions that emulate the namedtuple functionality with some classes in order to workaround this issue, but they all feel "forced" and require some unsavory hacks. I think namedtuple is one the most useful structures in the language, and like tuples and dicts, shouldn't be limited by design. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18896> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
