Mike Meyer <m...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment: The args attribute gets created by __init__ and nothing in the class removes it. I don't think it's unreasonable for the class to expect the attribute to not vanish on it. Possibly it should be spelled __args (or declared private :-), but neither of those would make a difference in this case.
Any feature access can be made more robust by checking for it in __dict__ first, but such a practice is neither practical nor pragmatic. It may be different for __getargs__, in which case the bug is in the documentation for __getargs__, which should mention this issue. _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue5370> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
