R. David Murray added the comment: "magic methods" like __enter__ and __exit__ are only looked up on the class, not on the instance. This is by design.
In some older versions of Python some specific methods (and I think __enter__ and __exit__ were among them for a time) were looked up on the instances, but this was a bug. (Personally I think it would be nice if they were looked up on the instances, but there are good reasons why this is not done.) ---------- nosy: +r.david.murray resolution: -> invalid stage: -> committed/rejected status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue20149> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
