This is not what the documentation says: """ iternextfunc PyTypeObject.tp_iternext An optional pointer to a function that returns the next item in an iterator, or raises StopIteration when the iterator is exhausted. """ <http://docs.python.org/dev/c-api/typeobj.html#tp_iternext> It looks like documentation needs to be updated, but wouldn't it be odd to specify that setting StopIteration exception is optional? It's probably more logical to intercept StopIteration in slot_tp_iternext rather than at every place where tp_iternext is called. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue2719> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
