Guido van Rossum <gu...@python.org> added the comment:
Functions don't store __annotations__ in their __dict__, it is a separate slot
named func_annotations (see funcobject.c). I guess that's because the __dict__
is purely for user-defined function attributes.
But perhaps for classes the C equivalent of this pseudo-code will work?
@property
def __annotations__(self):
if "__annotations__" not in self.__dict__:
self.__dict__["__annotations__"] = {}
return self.__dict__["__annotations__"]
The whole thing is protected by the GIL of course, so there's no race condition
between the check and the assignment.
So if you look in __dict__ it will be like it's still Python 3.9, but if you're
using the attribute (the recommended approach for code that only cares about
3.10) it'll be as if it always existed. Sounds pretty compatible to me.
