New submission from Adrian Dries <adr...@gmail.com>:
An API such as in, e.g. futures:
def submit(self, fn, *args, **kwargs):
pass
cannot be used thus:
submit(foo, 1, 2, fn=bar)
I can see two options: either mangle the named parameters:
def submit(__self, __fn, *args, **kwargs):
pass
Or fiddle with *args:
def submit(*args, **kwargs):
self, fn = args[:2]
args = args[2:]
