Gabriel Genellina <gagsl-...@yahoo.com.ar> added the comment: I think that trying to emulate all "getattr" details in the middle of unpickling (but omiting calls to __getattr__) isn't the right thing to do. What if in some cases __getattr__ (or __getattribute__) *does* the right thing, but pickle doesn't call it? Other people would be rightfully upset.
There should be a warning note about __getattr__ in the pickle documentation, and people should be encouraged to write __getattr__ in a more robust way, if class instances are meant to be pickled. ---------- _______________________________________ 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
