Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
So IIUC the "autosuper" idea is to assign a special instance of super to self.__super, so that you can write self.__super.method(...) to invoke a super method, using the magic of __private variables, instead of having to write super(classname, self).method(...). That was perhaps a good idea 20 years ago, but nowadays you can use argument-less super(), so you can write super().method(...), and AFAICT that works for class methods too. I don't think we need two ways to do it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue44090> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
