New submission from Gerrit Holl: When I initialise a class that doesn't define its own __init__, but I still pass arguments, the error message is confusing:
>>> class A: pass ... >>> A(42) Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> TypeError: object() takes no parameters Although it is correct that object() takes no parameters, it would be more correct to state that A() does not take any parameters. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 220313 nosy: Gerrit.Holl priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Confusing error message when initialising type inheriting object.__init__ type: behavior versions: Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue21728> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
