Nick Coghlan added the comment: Right, we definitely want inspect to swallow the exceptions from descriptors. My suggestion is merely to switch the order to be: 1. Try getattr 2. If that throws an exception, check __dict__ directly 3. If neither works (e.g. due to a buggy __dir__ method), ignore the attribute entirely.
The problem at the moment is *working* descriptors that are designed to fall back on the metaclass lookup are being mishandled. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue19030> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
