Hrvoje Nikšić <hnik...@gmail.com> added the comment: I considered using a variable, but I went with the factory function for two reasons: consistency with the rest of contextlib, and equivalence to the contextmanager-based implementation.
Another reason is that it leaves the option of adding optional parameters at a later point. I know, optional parameters aren't likely for a "null" constructor, but still... it somehow didn't feel right to relinquish control. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10049> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
