Well, this keeps existing behavior, so:
Reviewed-by: Eduardo Habkost <ehabk...@redhat.com>
But: what exactly is the meaning of allow_dict=False,
allow_dict=True, and allow_dict being a string?
allow_dict = True -- allows the type to be an object describing the type.
allow_dict: str -- allows the type to be an object (like True), but also
passes a name in for the purposes of validating the name with the pragma
whitelist(!)
What.
(lol)
What's going on here is that when you pass in a name, bool(allow_dict)
is True -- so we will allow the object being checked here to be a dict.
Also, when you pass in a name, that name is looked up in
info.pragma.name_case_whitelist to check if the names of the keys in the
dict being checked (again, allow_dict is implicitly true here) are
allowed to use uppercase names.
I have some more experimental patches I didn't want to mix in with the
type checking patches that try to extract pragma checks from this code
and perform them elsewhere; but that's going to come much, much later.
