Why? I can imagine something like a documentation generator or static type checker that just parses the source, being careful not to execute anything. Also, even if it does work by importing the module, how is the module being imported supposed to know which annotation processor is going to be processing its annotations, and therefore what generic methods need to be overridden, and how to go about doing that -- assuming there is no standardisation of any sort? -- Greg _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
