Benjamin Peterson <benja...@python.org> added the comment: This sort of thing is true of any slotted class with class attributes:
>>> class X: ... __slots__ = () ... foo = None ... >>> X().foo = "hello" Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: 'X' object attribute 'foo' is read-only I think what needs to happen is the error message needs to be improved in both cases. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12766> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
