Here's the new partial signature semantics: foo(a, b, /, c, d, *args, e) partial(foo, 10) -> (b, /, c, d, *args, e) partial(foo, 10, c=11) -> (b, /, *, c=11, d, e) partial(foo, 10, 20, 30) -> (d, *args, e) partial(foo, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50) -> (*args, e) partial(foo, 10, 20, c=20) -> (*, c=20, d, e) Good news: 1. no more special attributes and other hidden hacks. 2. only with this patch we properly support functools.partial. So this is definitely something we can classify as a bug fix and push in 3.4.1. ---------- keywords: +patch Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file34706/signature_partial_fix_01.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21117> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
