Guido van Rossum added the comment: I thought about this some more. It won't work because when a class method is called via super(), 'cls' is still set to the derived class (and in general for class methods that's the right thing to do, just as it is for regular methods that self is still the actual object). If you read my previous long comment you'll understand that all the __subclasshook__ methods carefully return NotImplemented immediately if their 'cls' argument is not the class where they are defined. So it won't work.
I also don't see the use case (you're not supposed to do this at home, basically). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27598> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
