Nick Coghlan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: The 2.6 and 3.0 documentation has already been updated appropriately. The forward compatible way to handle this is to inherit from object and override the special methods explicitly in the 2.x version (Yes this can make writing proxy objects more tedious, but from our experience with the tempfile module, I would say that the bulk of proxy objects that aren't overriding special methods on a case-by-case basis are probably broken anyway).
It may be appropriate to add a -3 warning that is triggered whenever a special method is retrieved via __getattr__ on a classic class. ____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue643841> ____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
