PyObject_Dir checks if the __dict__ of an object is a dict, if not it is
ignored. It should also accept dictproxies.
My usecase is an object that doesn't have a real dict, but looks up
attributes in another datastructure. When someone asks for the
__dict__ of this object I'm dynamicly building a new dictionary. I'd
like the __dict__ property to be a immutable value because changing
it won't (and shouldn't) affect the underlying object.
However, when I return the result of a call to PyDict_NewProxy the
builtin function dir will no longer use the contents of the __dict__
attribute, which is counterproductive because supporting dict is a
major usecase for supporting a __dict__ attribute in the first place! |
