New submission from Nick Coghlan: The docs from PyDict_Update (http://docs.python.org/3/c-api/dict.html#PyDict_Update) claim it is equivalent to the Python level dict.update (http://docs.python.org/3/library/stdtypes#dict.update) This isn't accurate - unlike dict.update, PyDict_Update doesn't fall back to the iterating over a sequence of key value pairs if the second argument has no "keys" attribute. ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Documentation messages: 193070 nosy: docs@python, ncoghlan priority: normal severity: normal stage: needs patch status: open title: Documentation for PyDict_Update is incorrect type: enhancement versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.3, Python 3.4 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18456> _______________________________________
