I thought it would be nicer for __file__, __name__ and __package__ to reflect the actual source code metadata (__file__ is always a py file while __cached__ may point to the compiled bytecode). But I don't have any strong feelings about that. Yes, __file__ can end up misleading if you modify the Python source without recompiling, but I think most people would only read the code without modifying it. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14657> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
