Moving from pending back to open (not sure what was "pending" about it?). The workaround is viable (and used by Python implemented dict subclasses in the standard library since they must accept **kwargs with arbitrary strings, including self), but it does seem a little silly that it's required. Leaving it as low priority since the workaround exists. Still, would be nice to make super() seamless, pulling the first argument if the function accepts it as non-varargs, and the first element of the first argument if it's varargs. If someone reassigns self/args, that's on them; it's fine to raise a RuntimeError if they use no-arg super(), requiring them to use two-arg super explicitly in that case. ---------- priority: normal -> low status: pending -> open versions: +Python 3.8 -Python 3.2, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue15753> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
