I came across this while searching for a way to DIY partial(), until it
is available in 2.5 http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Coo.../Recipe/229472
However, when trying for the following, it doesn't work and is
wondering if it is a bug or intended : import operator import new new.instancemet hod(operator.is _,None,object)( None)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#5 >", line 1, in -toplevel-
new.instancemet hod(operator.is _,None,object)( None)
TypeError: is_ expected 2 arguments, got 1 new.instancemet hod(operator.is _,False,object) (False)
True
So it seems that instancemethod( ) don't like "None" as the instance. 4 1513

"bound methods" and "unbound methods" are instance of the same type,
distinguished by one thing: the im_self of an unbound method is None,
the im_self of a bound method is anything else.
So, when you pass None as the instance, instancemethod likes it just
fine... and returns an "unbound method" as the result, so you haven't
actually achieved your goal (you must still pass the first parameter
explicitly -- all you've "gained" by wrapping a function into an unbound
method is an implicit typecheck on the first argument, and if, as the
class, you're using 'object' as in your example, that's not much use
[even in other cases, it's no great shakes;-)]).

thanks. So in this special case, None is being treated as a "flag"
rather than just an instance(I just read the doc) like any other
instance and the behaviour is intended. Is there any reason why it is
designed this way ?

I didn't yet know Python back when it was designed (dark ages, really),
but I assume the point was that, back then, we only had what's now the
legacy object model: bound methods could only be bound to instances,
classes were distinct from types, etc. So, an im_self that wasn't an
instance had no possible "normal" meaning, and None was a handy
placeholder. Of course, this design then couldn't be changed (nor can
it be now, until 3.0) to preserve backwards compatibility.
Guido has mused about abolishing "unbound methods" (in 3.0, I guess), so
there's hope for the future. But a more complete 'partial' is likely to
be acceptable sooner than any fix to bound/unbound methods: I suspect
the only ingredient that's missing is a generous helping of irrefutable
use cases.

So long the new partial() has this case covered, it is fine. As it
seems that this recipe http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Coo...n/Recipe/52549 also
forgot this special case(down to the bottom, the current curry code). This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics |

throws a TypeError with the message "TypeError: instancemethod

I'd like to be able to pickle instancemethod objects mainly because I
want to be able to delay a call like ``foo(spam, badger)`` by dumping
``foo``, ``spam`` and ``badger`` to disk and loading them again later.
Sometimes the callable ``foo`` is actually a bound method, e.g.

it doesn't know how to pickle/unpickle instancemethod objects.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
