New submission from Moritz Sichert: This patch fixes the following minor issues with the ipaddress module:
- Removed unused property _BaseV4._valid_mask_octets - Removed unused methods _BaseV4._is_valid_netmask() and _BaseV4._is_hostmask() - Replaced several calls to superclass constructors by super() It also refactors the constructors of IPv4Network, IPv4Interface, IPv6Network, and IPv6Interface. They all now use the new method _get_addr_prefix_tuple() to parse the argument. It now matches the following sentence of the documentation of IPv4/6Interface: "The meaning of address is as in the constructor of IPv4Network". Additionally they now also accept a bytes or an IPv4/6Address object representing a netmask (or a hostmask [only IPv4]) as second element of an address/netmask tuple. This makes it easier to work with C-APIs that provide netmasks only as bytes object. This patch does not try to solve issue 27683. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: ipaddress-improvement.patch keywords: patch messages: 273655 nosy: moritzs priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Improvements to ipaddress module type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 Added file: https://bugs.python.org/file44223/ipaddress-improvement.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue27860> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
