Filip Gruszczyński <grusz...@gmail.com> added the comment: My first intention was simply to push mapping from args to kwargs, just like Eric suggested, but that didn't help with __missing__, only with accepting a dict instead of pushing keyword arguments.
I didn't like explicitly asking for __missing__ either, but since I have little knowledge of what should be called, I didn't know what to use. I too believe something else the PyDict_GetItem should be called, something that would take care of __missing__ and other possibilities (I don't know what exactly and really would like to know what these are) internally. I am going to check, whether PyMapping_GetItemString is going to help. But can this really be called on a dict (or a subclass of dict)? What about retrieving getitem method from the given object and simply calling it? Wouldn't that do the trick? ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6081> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
