FWIW, I've followed this pattern (one function is both decorator and factory) in my own code for quite a while. I've never found it confusing nor has anyone else (that I'm aware) that has used those decorators. One reason I've done decorators this way is because the empty parentheses are a visual distraction to readers. They also imply to readers that more is going on than really is. So I'm in favor of Raymond's plan. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36772> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
