New submission from Daniel Stutzbach <dan...@stutzbachenterprises.com>:
Attached is a simple Python 3 example script that defines a minimalist
MutableMapping that simply wraps a dict, followed by:
x = MySimpleMapping(red=5)
y = x.keys()
z = x.keys() | {'orange'} x['blue'] = 7
print(list(z))
print(list(z))
Output:
['blue', 'red', 'orange']
[]
Expected Output:
['orange', 'red']
['orange', 'red']
The problem is that __or__ ends up returning a new KeysView wrapping a
generator instead of returning a set.
To solve the problem, KeysView and ItemsView need to override _from_iterable to
return a set instead of a new view.
