Raymond Hettinger <rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
This was an interesting idea. Essentially, it created cell-style objects for entries in a global dict so that functions using load_global could access and update the values directly. All dicts paid a price for this, but only module dicts would benefit. A more refined approach would be to create a custom dict type just for module globals. Mark, you're right. The patch appears to have been abandoned and not generated interest. ---------- resolution: -> out of date status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1739789> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
