P.S. To elaborate a bit more on why converting NamedTemporaryFile to subclass file would be a much bigger deal than it is to just fix its __enter__ and __exit__ methods: - converts from old-style to new-style class - imposes the constraints of a C base class on any subclasses - file attribute is currently part of the public API - need to retain wrapper approach in tempfile anyway for related type SpooledTemporaryFile in 2.6 (as that may contain a real file or a string IO object at different points in its lifecycle) - no compelling use case for the change (the wrapper approach works, what real advantage do we gain from subclassing file instead?) - wrapper approach is much easier to reconcile with Python 3.0's io module ---------- status: pending -> closed __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2021> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
