Fotis Koutoulakis added the comment: Ok, here is the second (modified patch) which contains a script so that no modifications are required to existing tests.
I am uploading it as a second patch, so that the first one is left as a reference. As a sidenote, I fail to see convincing reasons for why we would want the second solution more than the first. The first one looks cleaner to my eyes. The only downside I can see to the original approach is breaking a couple of tests, which is something that can be fixed easily without even making it to the repo (running the tests in 2-3 could help find all possible broken tests beforehand). Could someone explain to me why the second solution is more desirable? ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file33055/issue_18576_second.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18576> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
