R. David Murray added the comment: They are both correct. In 2.7 a class method is a method. In python3, a class method is a function.
As for the docs, the python3 docs say that it returns true for "a bound method on an object", while the python2 docs say "a bound or unbound method". A class method is not bound, and unbound method do not exist in python3. So the docs are correct as well. The notes about the difference could go into a porting guide, but I don't think they belong in the main docs. To fix your code, just treat function objects on classes as what you are thinking of as methods. Because they are: any function assigned to a class becomes a bound method when invoked through an instance. I think that's even backward compatible, though I haven't checked. ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: -> not a bug stage: -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue27901> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
