Apparently static checkers like mypy doesn't rely on the `typing.get_type_hints` function to implement its type checking functions (as I had browsed through the code repo). $ cat test.py def foo(arg) -> ' str': ... $ mypy test.py Success: no issues found in 1 source file If type checkers *think* this is acceptable, but the standard library doesn't, this can be some sort of inconsistency in my perspective. As Saiyang Gou had suggested, I would rather prefer to change the behaviour of `compile` in `eval` mode to preserve the internal consistency of builtin functions and therefore to eliminate this *buggy* behaviour of `typing.get_type_hints`. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue43893> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
