Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: I agree with Raymond that this, especially super() is not tutorial material. I agree with David that we need something somewhere else. Just today a commit was pushed about IOException subclasses causing problems because they have an __init__ but don't call super(). (Something like that.) I had no idea about this issue.
The stdlib has things like "class ModException(Exception): pass". Is that okay because it does *not* have __init__ override? ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15034> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
