New submission from Jim Jewett: The specialized lookdict_* variants replace themselves with the generic lookdict as soon as a non-unicode key is looked up.
They could reasonably leave the replacement to insertdict (line 819, currently assert rather than a replacement), when a non-unicode key is actually inserted into the dict. While inserts are less common than (all lookups including insert), I see the main advantage as reducing the number of duplications of the replacement logic. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 243969 nosy: Jim.Jewett priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: lookdict_* give up too soon type: enhancement _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue24275> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
