I do agree that it's nice to have a `__name__` for special forms, as they do very much behave like types even though they're strictly speaking not distinct classes. Whether we should have this feature is a distinct "problem" from its `__name__` being `None` (as can happen in its the current implementation), the latter of which is actively breaking tests over in https://github.com/numpy/numpy/pull/19612. I don't recall ever seeing a non-string name before, so I'd argue that this is a bug. It seems to be easy to fix though (see below for a `Union` example), so if there are objections I'd like to submit a PR. ``` - return _UnionGenericAlias(self, parameters) + return _UnionGenericAlias(self, parameters, name="Union") ``` ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44524> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
