New submission from Joe Jevnik: This patch adds 3 properties to methodcaller objects for inspecting the object at runtime:
1. 'name': the name of the method to call 2. 'args': the position arguments to pass to the method 3. 'keywords': the keyword arguments to pass to the method args and keywords act like functools.partial (that is why I did not name it kwargs). I noticed that recently the repr changed to expose this information which helps in the debugging use case; however, this allows us to use the methodcaller to maybe construct a new methodcaller with different args, or call a different method with the same args. ---------- components: Library (Lib) files: methodcaller-attrs.patch keywords: patch messages: 255636 nosy: llllllllll priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: expose name, args, and kwargs from methodcaller type: enhancement versions: Python 3.6 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file41198/methodcaller-attrs.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue25770> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
