Serhiy Storchaka <[email protected]> added the comment:
Argument Clinic doesn't have any relations to annotations. It is just by
accident use the syntax similar to the syntax of annotations in its
declarations (and actually use Python parser for parsing them as anotations,
but this is an implementation detail). It doesn't set argument annotations in
signatures.
For example, chr() is declared with:
/*[clinic input]
chr as builtin_chr
i: int
/
Return a Unicode string of one character with ordinal i; 0 <= i <= 0x10ffff.
[clinic start generated code]*/
Argument Clinic generates:
PyDoc_STRVAR(builtin_chr__doc__,
"chr($module, i, /)\n"
"--\n"
"\n"
"Return a Unicode string of one character with ordinal i; 0 <= i <= 0x10ffff.");
I think it could be possible to make Argument Clinic generating argument
annotations basing on the accepted by converters types, but we are far from
this.
