New submission from hai shi <shihai1...@126.com>:
Currently, many developers discuss the output of attributes of argparse should
be sorted or not?
>>> from argparse import ArgumentParser
>>> parser = ArgumentParser()
>>> _ = parser.add_argument('outstream')
>>> _ = parser.add_argument('instream')
>>> args = parser.parse_args(['out.txt', 'in.txt'])
# Keep the original order
>>> vars(args)
{'outstream': 'out.txt', 'instream': 'in.txt'}
# Order is sorted
>>> args
Namespace(instream='in.txt', outstream='out.txt')
IMHO, the attributes order should be keep the original order by default. If
user would like use order the attributes order, we should add a param in
`_AttributeHolder` to open sorting or not.
such as:
```
class _AttributeHolder(object):
def __init__(self, sort=false):
self.sort = sort
def _get_kwargs(self):
if sort:
return sorted(self.__dict__.items())
else:
return self.__dict__.items()
```
some other bpos have discussed this topic too: issue39075、issue39058
