R. David Murray added the comment: It means a function defined in the module namespace, as opposed to as a method on a class, so that 'from xml.dom.minidom import <somefunction>' will get you that function.
This issue should be for documentation of the problem, since we won't add the function to 2.7. A new issue should be opened for the enhancement request of adding a module level convenience function for writing a dom out to a binary file. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18911> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
