If so, I'll open one.
I don't understand what you are doing, so I tried to reproduce the unqualified class name in 3.4 with the simpler approach of returning T: Python 3.4.0 (default, Apr 11 2014, 13:05:11) [GCC 4.8.2] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> def test(): ... class T: ... def method(self): pass ... return T ... >>> T = test() >>> T.__qualname__ 'test.<locals>.T' >>> T.method.__qualname__ 'test.<locals>.T.method' If you do it that way with 3.3 (I don't have it handy) do you still see T instead of test.<locals>.T? -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
