+1 on a proxy (with read-only attrs) for everything but __name__, __file__, and __path__ (which can all be different than the spec). Ideally __name__ and __file__ would be read-only too but they'd have to be stored somewhere other than the spec (e.g. on the proxy or module object). __path__ could be similarly proxied but would at the least have to be mutable. The nice thing about such attrs is they wouldn't show up in the module's __dict__, assuming they are properties. The only catch I see is where the module's code sets one of the attrs. Would the proxy (or import machinery) pick those up, or maybe for some of them emit a warning or fail? We could also skip the proxy and add the properties to ModuleType directly, no? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue33277> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
