Martin Panter added the comment: FWIW I already invented this :) as written in Issue 22247. Although I think I only used it once or twice in my own personal librarie(s). So it’s a nice sign that we came up with the same @public name and usage.
I’m not a fan of hacks depending on the calling frame, and I prefer APIs that “only do one thing”. So I am okay with accepting an object and work off its __name__ and __module__, but not okay with also accepting a string and guessing what module it was defined in. ---------- nosy: +martin.panter _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26632> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
