New submission from Frank Millman <fr...@chagford.com>: At the top of my program I have 'from __future__ import unicode_literals'.
The relevant lines from my program read - from multiprocessing.managers import BaseManager class MyManager(BaseManager): pass MyManager.register('my_function', my_function) In multiprocessing.managers.py, the following lines are executed - 605 @classmethod 606 def register(cls, typeid, ...) [...] 632 def temp(...): [...] 642 temp.__name__ = typeid At this point, Python raises the exception TypeError: __name__ must be set to a string object I can fix it by changing my last line to - MyManager.register(str('my_function'), my_function) Is it possible to allow __name__ to be a unicode object? If not, may I suggest that line 642 of managers.py is changed to - temp.__name__ = str(typeid) Frank Millman ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 97697 nosy: frankmillman severity: normal status: open title: TypeError: __name__ must be set to a string object type: crash versions: Python 2.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue7688> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
