Category: Python Interpreter Core Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open >Resolution: Accepted Priority: 5 Submitted By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) >Assigned to: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Summary: Read-only property attributes raise wrong exception Initial Comment: In http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2005-April/052681.html I describe how attributes defined as properties raise inconsistent errors depending on whether the property is defined in C or Python. By default in C, you'll get a TypeError while in Python you'll get an AttributeError. I think both should raise AttributeErrors. Here is a patch against Python 2.4 which should be ported to 2.5 (and possibly 2.3 if we care). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Barry A. Warsaw (bwarsaw) Date: 2005-04-16 18:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=12800 Well, I was going to attach a patch, but it seems SF is borked and won't let me upload anything (yes the stupid checkbox was checked). The patch is simple though: change PyExc_TypeError to PyExc_AttributeError on lines 147 and 202 in Objects/descrobject.c (rev 2.38) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1184449&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
