Eric V. Smith added the comment: This file is derived from my namedlist project on PyPI.
I've stripped out the namedlist stuff, and just left namedtuple. I've also removed the Python 2 support, and I've removed support for default parameters. After that surgery, I have not tested it very well. Those are my excuses for why the code is more complex that it would be if I were writing it from scratch. Anyway, instead of using eval() of a string to create the new() function, I use ast manipulations to generate a function that does all of the correct type checking. It calls eval() too, of course, but with a code object. I originally wrote this as an exercise in learning how to generate AST's. I can't say it's the best way to solve this problem, and I haven't benchmarked it ever. So just consider it as a proof of concept, or ignore it if you're not interested. ---------- nosy: +eric.smith Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file45399/namedtuple1.py _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28638> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
