For versions 3.6 and 3.7 the solution is to modify the shadow check at line 236 so only DynamicClassAttributes are /not/ shadowed (meaning the _convert method would be shadowed by an _convert member). For 3.8 we can move _convert to the metaclass: I wasn't originally supportive of this idea, but I can see it being useful for other Enum mix-ins such as str. However, I will want to include a check that such a mix-in is there -- probably by checking that the Enum type is a subclass of the first member's type... something like: if not issubclass(cls, members[0]): raise TypeError(...) While we're making that change we can also check that members is not empty and issue a friendlier error message. We can also rename _convert to _convert_ in 3.8, but we'll need to have _convert also on the metaclass and have it trigger a warning that _convert_ is now the right way, and _convert will go away in 3.9. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue34282> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
