Your observation about the @dataclass decorator is significant. Thanks for that. On Tue, Feb 16, 2021 at 10:36 AM Joseph Perez <joperez@hotmail.fr> wrote:
PEP 649 doesn't prevent to use stringified annotations (Larry has previously mentioned it in its response to Paul Bryan), and they seem to be still required when `if TYPE_CHECKING:` is used, despite the PEP claim.
And my last message bring some use cases where strings are also required (notably, in recursive dataclasses). _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-leave@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/7QA3Z4CN...
