New submission from Stefan Seefeld: The python documentation states that since python 2.0 __getslice__ is obsoleted by __getitem__. However, testing with python 2.3 as well as 2.5, I find the following surprising behavior:
class Tuple(tuple): def __getitem__(self, i): print '__getitem__', i def __getslice__(self, i): print '__getslice__', i t = Tuple() t[0] # __getitem__ called with type(i) == int t[0:2] # __getslice__ called with type(i) == slice t[0:2:1] # __getitem__ called with type(i) == slice ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 62162 nosy: stefan severity: major status: open title: __getslice__ still called type: behavior versions: Python 2.3, Python 2.5 __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2041> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
