single dispatch for instance methods
Hi All, It would be nice if the @singledispatch decorator worked on instance methods. I have a reference implementation on pypi that does this ( https://pypi.python.org/pypi/methoddispatch). I posted this message to python ideas a month ago ( https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2016-September/042466.html) and got 100% support from 1 response. Not sure if I should proceed with writing a PEP. I am happy to do all the work if I know it will be accepted. Cheers Tim
Just one reply seems pretty weak of a push. However, you lose nothing by submitting it on the issue tracker: https://bugs.python.org I don’t have a use case for this myself, but we’ll see :) -Emanuel From: Python-Dev [mailto:python-dev-bounces+vgr255=live.ca@python.org] On Behalf Of Tim Mitchell Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2016 9:11 PM To: python-dev@python.org Subject: [Python-Dev] single dispatch for instance methods Hi All, It would be nice if the @singledispatch decorator worked on instance methods.
