Raymond Hettinger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: Overall, I'm not in favor of the patch or the basic idea. The heapq module is somewhat usable as-is with apps typically inserting tuples linking a priority level and a record.
Also, the attached code is not yet mature, nor does it evidence compelling use cases or user demand. This may make a good ASPN recipe but would be premature for inclusion in the standard library. One quick comment on the API, it would be better to have just a key function and to drop the cmp function as Python itself has done throughout the language in Py3.0. Recommend rejecting the feature request, leaving the module as clean as possible. If the code is published separately (perhaps as an ASPN recipe or third-party module), it may yet mature and gather a fan club. ---------- resolution: -> rejected status: open -> closed _____________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1162363> _____________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
